Everyone knows Morpeth or at least the High Street and shops. This walk was a circular route around the outskirts of the town taking in much of the new developments and the lesser well-known areas which are not always visited.

Sadly the strange occurance on our previous walk did not recur - Really cold day on the walk, but luckily there was no snow to speak of. Lunch at the cafe in Druridge Bay Country Park after a beach walk before getting back to the start point just as it started to rain . And we even had an outside loo for the faithful!!!, and sadly no wildebeests

A strange thing happened - the sun came out on our enjoyable walk through the super expensive houses at Darras Hall and back through the thick muddy tracks to Ponteland. Photographs by Dave Turpin

Our second normal walk of the year was a visit arranged by Prof Brian Randell to the School of Computing of Newcastle University. which started with a short 28 minutes to the School of Computing, passing a fine stretch of the Medieval City Wall. After visiting the School’s Historic Computing Display, we then walked the short distance to the Discovery Museum (free) and visit the but excellent Enigma Cipher Machine Gallery.
