A small select group met at Kingsway, with just me as leader. To ensure numbers were manageable I set up a 'Book When' booking, so this is why a small number of riders.
We enjoyed a dry, colourful ride out to Bunbury, to Tilly's.
On the way back I showed the ladies (if they had not already seen it) our own 'Elephant and Castle', created by the stoneworker to the Peckforton estate in 1859. It is unknown why he carved it, but the mason also was 'foremason' for Grosvenor Bridge in Chester, and some favourite Stone Lions I always look out for in Tattenhall.
