Windsor to Chertsey Bridge

119 miles completed! 11 miles to go. We're thinking about Athelstan, the crown and an approaching end. We were treated royally again on our way - at St Peter and St Andrew's Church in Old Windsor and St Mary's Church in Staines. Passing through Runnymede we wondered what Athelstan would have thought about the Magna Carta. We'll have to ask the famous historians at Kingston's great celebration of the 1100th anniversary of Athelstan's coronation on Thursday.

 

Arriving at Chertsey Bridge we were warmly greeted by the Mayor of Runnymede, Cllr Margaret Hampden and her consort. She'd looked at the weather forecast for tomorrow and, very appropriately, presented our walking Mayor of Malmesbury with an umbrella. On to Hampton Court tomorrow.
