At the northern leg of the route the trio made their way through the attractive beech woodland of Eartham Wood, near a spot marked as The Plain on maps.

At this point we had just completed the steepest climb of the afternoon... which compared to previous weeks had been pretty wimpy. It did get the heart pumping, and GF reflected that by the top he probably looked like a knuckle dragging mouth-breather**.
