New walk north of Taunton
Another new walk, courtesy of Philippa - we walked this at the weekend, very close to where I used to live to the north of Taunton. It's a gently undulating route with a few short hills, between the far southern end of the Quantocks and the flatter country of the Taunton Vale, starting at Kingston St Mary. The picture is the old windmill in Burlinch Plantation, soon after West Monkton.
