Here are the last photos taken this summer. I actually walked the Chisholm Trail again on the Platinum Jubilee weekend in June, about six months after it opened, but I’ve only just found time to create the Chisholm Trail Phase 1 – Six Months On walk page from the photos I took then.

Chisholm Trail Phase 1
This is the first walk I’ve photographed and added to the Walks page since last summer. Chisholm Trail Phase 1 is now open, if somewhat unfinished, and I decided to take advantage of the mild weather over New Year to explore it. I’ll probably get back to adding more walks after Easter when there isContinue reading “Chisholm Trail Phase 1”
Cows About Cambridge – Mini-Moos Trail
Following on from the Large Cows Trail, I’ve created a photographic record of the Cows About Cambridge Mini-Moos Trail and added it to the Walks page. This is the second of two sponsored walks that I’ve completed to raise money for the charity Break. Details of that can be found on my Just Giving page.Continue reading “Cows About Cambridge – Mini-Moos Trail”
Cows About Cambridge – Large Cows Trail
I’ve created a photographic record of the Cows About Cambridge Large Cows Trail and added it to the Walks page. This is the first of two sponsored walks that I’ve completed to raise money for the charity Break. Details of that can be found on my Just Giving page. I’ve also walked and photographed theContinue reading “Cows About Cambridge – Large Cows Trail”
Elizabeth Way Roundabout
Here’s something slightly different – a rather short walk around the Elizabeth Way Roundabout. I’ve wanted to photograph the murals here ever since they appeared a little over twenty years ago, and finally got round to it this week. Constructing the panoramas proved an interesting challenge, and I’d love to know more about them.
Grafton Centre and Kite Area
I’ve added a walk around the Grafton Centre and surrounding streets. This is topical at the moment, as last month it was announced that the Grafton Centre has been put up for sale and could be repurposed or redeveloped.
Mill Road Revisited
On the way to photograph another walk, not yet written up, I walked along Mill Road with the wide-angle lens and got better views of Parkside Pool and three churches. I’ve added those to the Mill Road page, along with one of the skateboard park.
Undeveloped Chalk Pits
I present my entry for the Least Photogenic Lockdown Walk Award 2021: the Undeveloped Chalk Pits. They are currently topical as the full planning application to develop them for warehousing and an urban country park has recently been submitted. But surprisingly little of them can be seen from the footpaths around them.
Mill Road
I’ve added a walk home along Mill Road from Parker’s Piece. This contains lots of photos – most walks will be shorter!
Construction of the Chisholm Trail
I’ve photographed a walk along much of the route that the Chisholm Trail will take from Cambridge Station to Cambridge North Station, showing the construction that is underway at the moment.
