Location

A field west of Chippenhall and Swan Greens, Suffolk, UK.

Participants

Plans

Went on a whim to take advantage of more nice spring weather.

Expedition

The public footpath was not properly signposted so I made a best effort attempt and followed the wrong field perimeter. Near the hashpoint, I failed to locate the correct path but my wanderings took me to the zero point. Most convenient. Sometimes I lead walks for the Suffolk Ramblers' group, so I have a genuine reason for wanting to locate the correct path. Farmers could avoid significant crop damage by maintaining the finger posts that mark the correct path.

In the image bewlow, the red tracks are designated rights of way. I doubt if my eTrex Vista has the capacity to store all these trails so I lacked the exaxt information needed on the expedition.
