Wednesday A 27 March 2013, 10:00a.m., Hartest

Route: We will follow an undulating route over the Newmarket Ridge in open countryside with some good views, via Castle Farm, Rede & Somerton approximately 8 miles in the morning and 4 miles after lunch.

Start: Hartest lies on the B1066, approximately 10 miles south of Bury St Edmunds. For those living in or south of Cambridge it is probably best reached via Clare. For those living East of Cambridge, the A14 to Bury, then south on the B1066 is probably quickest, though there are more direct and scenic minor road options from Newmarket!

Please park in the Public Car Park (not signed) approximately 50m from the cross-roads in the centre of the village – on the right-hand side of the minor road running west towards Somerton http://goo.gl/maps/OJQ3G [green arrow] [GR TL833525, approximately IP29 4DH].
