Happy New Year: Coate Water and the South Swindon green trail

The Thames Path – Cricklade to the Thames Source (section 14)
I started the walk around 08:00 from the Bridge in Cricklade, where I last stopped. This last leg of the Thames Path has been much delayed so my rushed decision to get on the path today was definitely a very good one. A what a beautiful day for it! I decided to return to using…
