Since I’d already explored the greater part of Shepton Mallet in the previous 2 days, yesterday I decided to follow the public footpaths – it took me on quite an adventure.




I eventually ended up on the Fosseway before heading back into town to see the Christmas lights. Some of the windows look so pretty.

I sent the pic of the owl to my daughter to show my grandson – apparently he responded with “oooooooo” 🦉😃😃

There’s a delightful cafe in the High Street called Madhatter’s – I love the decor. Next time I go past, if the cafe is open I may just treat myself.

So, despite having pretty much covered the whole town on the first day, I’m still managing to create some news routes…it’ll be interesting when I finish here on 12th, to look at all my excursions on mapmywalk and see just exactly where I’ve been.





Shepton Mallet looks a delightful place. I’ve never been but hopefully will get there one day.
Its different to what I expected, but its growing on me 😉
