There was mist in the distance and it felt colder than the 1° recorded on my car.

We walked round the (frozen) Cock Cabin Pond.  Mary broke the ice on the edge of the pond to allow oxygen to reach the pond life.

Rejoining the Cycle Track, looking across to the Hall

then down through the wood to the stone bridge. 

We then continued around the (half frozen) lake.  Some of the ice on the lake had melted from Tuesday, but there were few birds swimming in the ice free areas.

We pressed on through Dog Kennel Wood, Gravel Hole Wood.
