We walked this way several weeks ago, when Bullhill Brook was flooded and we couldn’t get to the footbridge. Instead, we followed a most pleasant path through the fields behind Bull Farm. Today we’re following the same route – except that we’re not visiting the ford first… Yesterday was rainy, all day (hence the avoidance of the ford), and tomorrow’s forecast is similar – but today it’s warm, bright and sunny. No jackets or jumpers needed – and we heard our first cuckoo of the year. Despite the rain, truly it’s spring
