This is the final leg of this year's project walk. It starts in Colnbrook (see below for options on how to get to the start)

Having alighted at Ye Olde George Inn bus stop, walk back a few metres to The Ostrich Inn for pre-walk refreshments and toilets. Note the Ostrich Inn serve breakfast if you wish to have a bite to eat before the walk!.

We start walking at around 11:15 to 11:30.

The 5.7 mile walk will take about 2 hrs 20 minutes, so we should arrive at the Thames in Staines at about 1:35 to 1:50 pm.
It’s then about a 10 minute walk to get to The George in Staines at around 2 pm for an end-of-walk meal.
