North East Gower - Sunday 27th February 2011
Next Sunday Robert leads us on a really easy walk in north east Gower – an often ignored area that nevertheless has much of interest. For example we cross Welsh Moor, a mosaic of damp acid grassland and drier heath, which is owned and managed by the National Trust. Work has recently taken place on the site to encourage a greater diversity of heathland plants. We return along the coastline with views across the salt marsh and estuary.
Difficulty/distance:About 6.5 miles mostly on good roads / tracks but boots still needed for occasional muddy bits.
Meeting point: 09:30 at Civic Centre, as usual; or at the Welcome to Town in Mill Lane, Llanrhidian (SS 497 922) before 10:15 – but please let Robert know on 07981 963 681 if you are going directly to the meeting point.

Before that, why not join us at the pub quiz on Tuesday in the Westbourne? We’ve won several bottles of wine, and third prizes, but need your help to get first place. Starts 9 pm – further details from Robert – 07981 963 681.

And if that's not enough it's our regular pub night and the Brunswick in Sandfields this Thursday. We meet after 8pm. Please call Doug on 07766652837 if you want more details.

That's it for this week.
