Day 21

We are staying 1.5 miles NW of the centre of Wolverhampton which, in spite of the strong clue given by the somewhat distinctive local accent, is amazing because we have been walking in open countryside nearly all day. We've walked over 23 miles from Bewdley, first alongside the River Severn but the last 10 have been along the Shropshire and Worcester canal. Open countryside - apart from lines of electicity pylons marching across the country in all directions. My feet ache. I suppose this is to be expected after walking 345 miles.
