August 22nd
Met up in Broadway and took a right out of the village towards the Tower. After a steepish climb through fields and passed delapidated dry stone walling we reached the Tower for a well earned rest. Spurning the delights of The William Morris Room but promising to return to it at some future date we sat outside the cafe and enjoyed a pot of tea with all the other visitors. Finding a huge iguana in the tearoom though is a little unexpected and just a little sad.
Carrying on away from the bustle we found a flock of sheep just about to be fed. The farmer advised us they were Suffolk rams and good for putting with less sturdy sheep - so continuing our sheep breed identification skills. He even suggested that we should go to the Moreton Show in September, little did he know that we were thinking this would just blow our minds completely with all that livestock.
We got a bit lost on the way back to Broadway and ended up having to turn around and go back the way we'd just been for a while but we did manage to see someone's very nice house from both the front and the back. Eventually came down to the village through what turned out to be the hunt stables. Surprised that this was so close to the centre but none of us knew it existed.
