Wandle & Carshalton

A sedate ride from my birthday present quiet roads of London book. Lots of stops to read the book, make sure on right route (tho a lot played by ear so to speak), to read the history plaques and to take photos with smart new Android phone. And a bit of lunch.

See the route here:
Wandle & Carshalton to Coulsdon by jimwood24 at Garmin Connect - Player

Morden Hall Park house and snuff mill (see millstone in foreground)

Snuff millstones on the base stone - to grind tobacco into snuff

Woodmansterne carved tree - downhill from here on in

Town and Country

Typical British canal scene - miles from a supermarket
so suspect trolley placed by an artist for aesthetic reasons
