Exact details won't be available until about a week beforehand as the timetables aren't available until then. All heritage bus trips will be free but you are encouraged to support them by buying a timetable, see www.kingalfredbuses.org.uk. Contact David Pritchard for more information. Phone: 07984 963138. |

Itchen Navigation Pub Walk Start Woodmill, Southampton Our annual stroll along the old Itchen Navigation towpath, calling in on a few pubs on the way. Depart from Woodmill Bridge, Southampton at 9.30am, reaching Winchester around 3 to 3.30pm. The Black Boy is open again on Monday afternoons so that is an option, but for the last two years we have been going to the Queen Inn so we may well stick with that. Possibly we'll go on to other pubs; you can always phone to find out where we are. Later on we usually finish off with a curry somewhere. Join us en route if you like - we expect to be at Steam Town, Bishopstoke Road, Eastleigh at 11am*, and the Bridge, Shawford around 1.30pm. Please note that departure is at 9.30am. Steam Town is a pub and brewery that opened November 2017 and has quickly found much favour in Eastleigh, and it's on our route - just turn left, not right, at Bishopstoke Road! *Steam Town very kindly opened early for us at 11am last year, and we hope will do so again, so if joining us at Eastleigh then Steam Town at 11am is the place to be. Contact Pete Horn for more information. Phone: 07968 809291. |
