    Fletcer cres in Herrington? I'm in penshaw mate. But That's reminded me of another wood. Herrington woods used to go over there occasionally when I was a kid. Never been in there for about 20 years.

    My vote is for penshaw wood. 5Mins walk for me lol. I work alternate weekends and have alternate Mondays off. For me personally the Monday is best. Kids are at school and the wife's at the gym. Had a very nice few hours up penshaw woods yesterday only saw 1 dog walker.

    I originally joined this forum about 18 months ago. Was just starting to dabble in bushcraft after telling my kids about the dens I used to build in 2 local woods as a kid.
