Walk 5 - 28th June 2012 - Newnham on Severn to Over

 After leaving our cars parked at Over we caught the bus to the start of our walk at The Silver Fox Cafe on the A48 to the north of Newnham on Severn. We were told the cafe is named after the farming of silver foxes that took place on the land surrounding the cafe in the early 1900's. The hapless foxes doomed to become coats. In the 1960's the cafe was often used as a stop off point for  travelling artists Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey and The Beatles amongst it's early clientele.

Quick refreshment at The Severn Bore Inn Minsterworth. 
Afterwards our walk seemed to be never ending along the twists and turns of the river. With the Strawberry of Over Farm Market (our destination and where our cars were parked) never seeming to get any closer.
