Penarth With Plenty Of Sunshine
THURSDAY WALKERS
Penarth
Once again Bert managed to pick a Thursday with plenty of sunshine, though there were remnants of ice in places.
Eighteen of us started from the cliff top car park. We were led on an undulating route down to the sea front, up through the park to the town centre and then straight back down to the sea front before climbing the steps behind the Kymin. The promise of a chance to walk off some of the post-Christmas pounds was fulfilled.
Views were excellent with both Severn bridges visible. We lingered at the viewing point on the cliff top where you can see the whole of Penarth seafront.
Joseph Parry, who composed Myfanwy, is buried in St Augustine’s church and we found his grave.
Then a detour to Costa for coffee before walking back along the old railway footpath to the end.
Next Walk
