THIS WEBSITE

This site was originally created in 2013 to promote my book, Cassiobury Walks (30 walks from Cassiobury Park). In August 2026 the website was hacked and destroyed – so this is a brand new website.

As of now (October 2026) it is not entirely rebuilt, I have yet to make many tweaks, I have yet to ‘pretty it up’ with attractive formatting rather than boring blocks of text – all will be done in the next couple of months. You will find this website interesting and useful nevertheless!

THE BOOK

Cassiobury Walks is now out of print. The print-run was 500 and, to my amazement, they sold out quite quickly. Dozens of people have since been asking when I’ll write another book of walks. I do not have such a book planned…maybe when I retire from my day job.

If you wish to hunt around for a second hand copy, details are:
