Start from the White Horse, Broughton Astley. A little sun, which we managed to follow for about half the run.

We're off, minus hat left at home as I was in 'wet run' mode! (South Leicester MG Club)

Mid-point stop at the excellent Gates Garden Centre

Arrival at Belvoir Castle (South Leicester MG Club)

Parking in the castle yard at Belvoir - we filled it!

Rose garden in full bloom

A great view of the house from the rose garden ...

... and down to the Japanese woodland

Bee and others sitting in the rain while we were in the castle

'A commanding position' as no doubt the estate agents particulars would say, viewed from the exit road.
