Your photos continue to enthrall me.

What a fantastic website! Super quality photos chronicling some great walks - showing the beauty of this country.
So glad I stumbled across it!

I retired to Thailand three years ago. Seeing some of your pictures this morning has made me realise that it has little to offer in comparison with the beauty of the English countryside, illustrated so well in your photography.

I’m thankful that the beauty of the landscape that you have in Britain is properly preserved and recognised for its importance. Here most things that might have had any beauty in the past have long since been destroyed and that that is attractive, usually proves to be fake. Sadly Thailand is mostly about face-value and I often wish I hadn’t left England.

But at least I can now view your excellent pictures – the next best thing. Many thanks for your hard work compiling them.

Stephen, after roughly 18 years, I thought I would drop you a quick line to say that having stumbled across your website, I note that it has the same diligent characteristics that you academic work had. A good selection of pictures and a few memories for me, as I have walked many of the lakes routes myself. Hope you are well, maybe our paths will cross again one day.

Regards

Darren

What an absolutely delightful website! I have spent ages admiring the beautiful photographs and engaging in a nostalgic journey on some of the railways I have visited in the past. Thank you so much for this opportunity.

Hi Stephen and Lucy - I love looking at your pictures. I am putting together a series of postcards to sell in support of a local charity in Islington. One of the packs is about the New River and I'm hoping you might let me use a few photos that you took on your New River walk. I can send you further details if you let me have your contact details. Many thanks and I hope to hear back.

Hello, Just wanted to tell you how much we appreciate your site! We're relatively new denizens of the Isles, so your photos are a great incentive and guide to exploring! Bully for you!

Hi you two. Loved the pictures of the river and bridge in Paphos forest. My partner lynne and I were in Cyprus in 2008/09 and loved the forest. Unfortunatly our pictures of the river were lost so it's good to see it again and bring back some happy memories. All being well back there again next year to visit some dear freinds. Very best wishes

I have been looking for a great picture of the Lea River for a while and was really pleased to come across the lovely images from your walk from Ponders End to Limehouse. I was wondering if I could have your permission to use one of them - please get in touch. Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Stephen, Your work is marvelous! Very grateful that you are making your beautiful photos available for others to use. In writing about Emiliania huxleyi, my favorite phytoplankton, I used your white cliffs of the Seven Sisters in East Sussex. Many thanks! http://scaleindependentthought.typepad.com/

Hi. I found your website while trying to discover what the strange tower structures are at the A13 junction with Ferry Lane in Rainham. We finished the London Loop in July 2009. A path is now open along the Thames from Coldharbour Point to Purfleet.. You pass the RSPB centre which is excellent for refreshments, and the Purfleet Heritage centre (open Thursdays and Sundays, I think) - also excellent.
I like your photos of the walk

I love your canal and lakes pics. I would like to use your Gummers How panoramic picture in a write up I have done for a friend about the delightful walk up Gummers How - she has a cottage in Bowness. I took pics with my Nikon D70 and wanted to stich them in Photoshop but the card corrupted and I lost them - very dissapointing! I have a very similar picture taken from Lakeside with believe it or not the same boat in the foreground (on a Fuji 10mpx). Please look at my new website www.waterwaysfromtheair.co.uk and you will see my canals interest too! I'm currently mapping the complete waterways of the uk! Please contact me as I'd love to include some of your pictures!
Keep up the good work - very enjoyable.

I would like to thank you for sharing your wonderful photographs, especially of the Four Counties Ring. We are going in a few weeks time and we hope we shall have a great a time as you seem to have done. I hope the extraordinary tree is still there - I will be looking out for it. Again, really enjoyed taking the tour, almost try before you buy scenario. Kind Regards Chris

Love reading about your travels and enjoyed your account of the South West Coast Path – particularly the St Ives to Penzance section, as myself, partner and dog are heading to this, evidently rugged, westernmost part of the UK for the first time in September.
I expect we will be walking sections of the path and so your photographs certainly gave us a good impression of the area!

Thank you for your wonderful journeys ..I love your website and fell totally inspired to continue with my south coast path walks

Kingston to Hatton Cross London Loop.
In the interest of accuracy, once you go north of the river from Kingston you are no longer in Kingston upon Thames. Bushy Park is in Richmond UponThames and the London Loop stays in Richmond Upon Thames until you cross the Hanwroth Road into Hounslow Borough.
Incidentally, the London Loop signs have now been installed in Crane Park. (earlier this year)

Nice website by the way

Like the website - we are planning to do the Avon Ring in a week which I believe is very possible despite most people saying it takes 2. Can you tell me how many hours a day you needed to cruise when you did your week. Thank You

Fab website, was really envious looking at Lake District photos as my heart belongs to them, (we have a caravan on west coast).
Found your site whilst googling Dawson Yewbarrow, I'm trying to trace my GG grandad Charles Dawson who according to 1891 census lived at Yewbarrow Lodge!
I really enjoyed the photos as I live in MK and I swear I could even taste the fresh air whilst browsing,
Happy snapping x

Thanks for the pictures. We are planning a week from Bunbury in 10 days time. On Saturday night we hope to be in Chester (or possibly Wolverhampton) Last year we cruised from Lower Heyford (see link) http://www.onionbargees.org.uk/v/2008+Lower+Heyford

I found your wonderful website on Google. I have had two trips to the UK and think it is beautiful. I love looking at and learning about areas there.

I keep sending your links to my friends in the UK each time I find an area I have been to or something I'd love to see.

Your website is excellent, you have set it up so well. Your photos are beautiful and the comments are very informative.

Dear Stephen
Hello I came across your website via your photo of Butser Hill on Wikipedia. I live in Horndean at the bottom of Butser I am just setting up an Ezine on assistive technology and archaeology called @Guru/AT Guru www.at-guru.com and would love to use your photo of Butser that is on the Wikipedia page for Butser Hill. I read archaeology at University and did do photography but my photography skills are now where near yours and I will of course acknowledge your copyright.

Hi Stephen,

I've been enjoying looking at your web site again, it's very interesting. I smiled when I saw that you'd felt compelled to fill in the hole in the middle of the Hertfordshire Chain Walk at Watton-at Stone - I did the same! I hope you'll find time to do more of my Chiltern Chain Walk sometime.

Regards,

Pete

Dear Madam, Dear Sir,

I'm research assistant at the University of Namur (Belgium), management department, and in the framework of a Belgium free publication on ponds, we would like to know if we could use pictures coming from your website to illustrate "dew ponds"?
In case of you would agree, what should mention as source (authors)?
Looking forwards to hearing from you,
Faithfully yours,

Kevin Morelle

Craig & Diane

Thank you both for the wonderful adventures & stories! Stephen, NEVER worry about placing too many pictures in, as we really benefit from seeing the wonderful places we simply do not have time to visit on our trips. We'll have to use your stories as a guide for "must see, must do" when we return! We also thank both of you for allowing little Winston to come to America with us...he is such a joy!

Casper

Hi there - I very much enjoyed reading your Kingston to Kew Bridge walk as I live in the area. However some of your captions are wrong! You see the captions should state "Richmond" instead of "Kingston" for pictures 11 (Walking alongside Petersham Meadows, the houses of RICHMOND) to 14 (A train for WATERLOO crosses RICHMOND railway bridge).

Sorry to be persnickety! But I thought you would want to know!

All the very best, Casper

Webmaster comments Thanks. I was sure I'd already fixed that page when the error was previously pointed out. But it's definitely right now!

Jeffrey French

Your photos are fantastic and the captions very informative. I'm about to make a canalboat trip from Bunbury to Trevor and back in a few weeks and have some specific questions regarding your trip. Could you contact me?

Thanks!

Webmaster comments I've replied to Jeffrey and offered some comments on his planned trip from Bunbury to Trevor.

Lovely website - nice to find people who get out and about rather than being couch potatoes. I bet you read Enid Blyton when you were children?

You should try visiting East Anglia - it has several enthusiasts railways, waterways, long distance paths.

Such a pleasure to stumble upon your site! I spent 6 months traveling around the British Isles 25 years ago, and your travels bring back so many fond memories! I'm soooo envious. You cover so much ground! I'm impressed with how you seem to have your priorities in order with regards to R & R ! My happy place is anywhere in North Yorkshire or the Lakes. Thank you so much.

Used to live in Bush HIll Park and spent many happy childhood hours at Enfield Town Park. I've been in Australia now over 40 years but got very choked up on seeing those pics on your site. Thank you for letting me see my old haunts again (and in a lot of cases they haven't changed
