South East Associates
Hamble Valley Walk
- Tuesday 4th October -
A grey and showery day could not diminish the sheer beauty of this part of the Chilterns - the trees were just beginning to change colour, and the walk passed through three of the most picturesque villages you are ever likely to see - Fingest, Freith and Skirmett - ending up at a tiny village pub lost in time and rated on all the websites as one of the best!
Fingest & Turville Windmill
The TV companies agree since this area is an outdoor film set.
"The Vicar of Dibley", "Midsummer Murders" and many episodes of the old "Avengers" series were filmed here.
Fingest Church
Sadly only five Associates enjoyed this experience, following a rash of last minute cancellations.
Not least did they miss that pint of Breakspears Bitter, and a HUGE Ploughman's Lunch at the Chequers pub in the absurdly beautiful village of Fingest . . . . .
