Nottingham Hill Cotswold Escarpment

I first set eyes upon Nottingham hill along the Cotswold Escarpment in Gloucestershire from a photo walk atop Oxenton Hill a few months prior.  It was the great views from the beer garden of the Mount Inn in Stanton just a few weeks ago that rekindled my interest in Nottingham Hill.

River Severn Walk Deerhurst Gloucestershire

It was another lovely sunny March spring day.  Its rare we get a weekend mid March where its glorious sunshine both Saturday and Sunday.  I had already been out the day before with a trip to Black Hill in Herefordshire.  My legs were aching even still feel guilty staying indoors on a sunny day.  I selected a short walk nearby of around 3 to 4 miles just outside Tewkesbury along the river Severn near Deerhurst in Gloucestershire.

Around Oxenton Hill From Teddington

While contracting in Tewkesbury come lunchtimes I usually go  for a 2.5 km walk around the industrial estate, just to get some exercise, fresh air and natural light weather permitting.  Nothing to take nice photos of there though.

Tewkesbury Battle Walk Circuit

I was working in Tewkesbury Gloucestershire while living 10 miles away in Pershore Worcestershire.  On the weekends especially if it was cloudy and overcast I liked to visit the towns and cities of the west midlands and this week I chose to do the Battle walk through Tewkesbury starting at the Abbey.

Forest of Dean Gloucestershire

Another cloudy weekend beckoned, with the sunlight diffused by clouds, forests and woodland can make good subject matter to photograph. Without diffused light there is too much contrast with the bright and dark areas. So this weekend decided to take my first trip to the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire.

Painswick Cotswold Gloucestershire

This weekend decided to visit Painswick in Gloucestershire known as the queen of the Cotswolds.  I was using the AA’s 50 walks around Gloucestershire as my guide.  The AA guide described the area around Painswick including the Washpool Valley as having extensive views and a difficult walk due to the hills so good for exercise and photography hopefully.

Cleeve Hill Cheltenham Gloucestershire

Ideally at the weekend when I am working in a new location on the Saturday like to explore a new town or city and the Sunday do a long walk in the countryside somewhere.  This Saturday I wanted to explore Cheltenham town and then take a detour and do a recon on top of the nearby Cleeve Hill.
