Torver Common

Walked on 24/08/2025

It was a lovely late summer day today, really warm with light winds so it was good to get out and give Finlay a little taste of things to come. We took it really easily, just a gentle stroll with lots of sitting and admiring the views, it really was the sort of day to do just that.
