Went for a drive to the Forest of Marston Vale. Its actually an area where clay was mined in the
past and they are creating lakes and forests to rehabilitate the area. We started to walk around the lake (2Km) but it
started to rain so we went back to the car. We saw a church in the distance and decided to
have a look. It turned out to be St Marys,
Marston and it had a very interesting architecture and graveyard.
We stopped and had lunch on a bench in the churchyard.
Had a quiet afternoon
Found out at dinner that the building we are staying in was the
Sergeants Mess of RAF Marston during World War 2 and that it was named after Reginald
Joseph Mitchell the designer of the Spitfire.
