The lunch stop is at a town called Ashwell which has lots of pubs which serve food and a very interesting church that's worth a look. 

After lunch there is an option to take a 3 miles or so quiet road route to Ashwell and Morden station . This shortens the original walk by about 3 miles. I will direct anyone who wants this option. 

I'll be taking the train that departs from Kings Cross at 10.12 and calls at Finsbury Park at 10.19 where I will board. 

For some reason there is a change at Stevenage where we arrive at 10.38 and then take a train from the same platform at 10.50 and arrive at Baldock at 11.04. 

Return trains at half hourly at 24 and 49 minutes past the hour to Kings Cross and don't involve a change. 

See you there

We meet at 6.30pm in the sculpture gallery (between the gift shop and the courtyard) of the V&A Museum in South Kensington. I'll clarify the rules if needed. Basically you pair off and I will give you a list of things to find and photograph, starting at 7pm. Only ONE person in the team is in charge of sending in the photos (via Whatsapp), and I will take their name. Photos from anyone else will not be accepted! Some things will be very specific and some will be less so. You can go anywhere that's open to look, which means the ground floor and the 2nd floor. 

The hunt will last till 8.30 and afterwards we will go to the Hoop & Toy pub, on Thurloe Place, 5 mins away.

Anyone not wishing to do the scavenger hunt is welcome to sit with me and draw some of the sculptures (bring your own paper and pencils). The V&A cafe is open till 8.30  and the pub does food..

The aim is to look around the house and garden, so we will spend around two hours there. For non-NT members the entry fee is £19.

Other highlights include a Cromwellian church at Plaxtol and one of Britain’s biggest Iron Age forts. The terrain is reasonably hilly, including one “very steep” hill – the book from which the walk is taken says it’s for “reasonably fit” walkers. Woodland paths may be muddy after rain. 

Our lunch stop will coincide with the visit to Ightham Mote. The café there serves light lunches, sandwiches and cakes, and can be accessed without paying to enter the house. 

Meet at Borough Green & Wrotham station at 11.15am. Buy a return to Borough Green & Wrotham and take the 10.29 train from Charing Cross, also calling at Waterloo East (10.32) and London Bridge (10.38). Return trains are at 29 and 45 mins past the hour.

The library was created around 1613 by Sir John Kedermister at a time when he was paying for a large upgrade of St Mary’s Church in Langley, near Slough. It sits next to his family’s private prayer space in the church, and usually the doors are kept locked. 
 
But once a month from May to October, you can step into their private space and through a small door into an incredibly richly decorated space. 
 
Inside, the honorary librarian, Jane Sculpher, gives a talk on the library’s history, then pulls out some of the treasured books from the collection to show around. 
 
This seems like a special place, so I thought it would be good to take the last opportunity this year to visit.  
 
Meet Iver Station 11 am.
