After a leisurely
morning dog walking and reading, we set off to walk into Market Bosworth for a pub lunch. The Olde Red Lion is situated
in the centre of Market Bosworth and is well worth a visit as the food is good and
value for money. We arrived first but
were soon joined by Martin, Melissa, William, Georgia and finally Steven.
In the afternoon we
walked to the station at Market Bosworth where there was a heavy horse show. It was a magnificant display of Shire horses and regalia which impressed William and Georgia,
we then boared the steam train to Shenton.
At the station we were able to see the wonderful display of glass
blowing by artist Richard Golding, unfortunately
Richard was not blowing glass on this day as he had technical problems with his
furnace. There was still enough time to
walk to the Battle of Bosworth Country Park.
The children enjoyed the audio presentations en route and sitting in
King Richard III and Henry Tudor’s seats around the magnificent sundial. The day ended with a return train ride back
to Market Bosworth.
