Walking in Slad On a Sunny October Morning
Take a gentle and very slow walk with me in Slad, a small hillside village in the Cotswolds just a couple of miles from Stroud. Slad is of literary interest as the setting of Laurie Lee's most famous novel 'Cider With Rosie' (Lee was raised there) but, mainly, it's just a beautiful small village in the setting of the Slad Valley.
The view over the hillside with trees just starting to turn to autumnal shades, is spectacular but those things often don't show up so well in photographs and videos so you might have to take my word for it. I have been here often and there are about three different routes that could have been taken. For my fellow walking video-makers, there are more ways of seeing this very pretty village.
The pub was lively and the roads are often filled with hikers. People who love walking up and down hills are in their element in this part of the world. The hills are steep enough to get your blood pumping but rarely so steep that a wrong step might kill you.
So, for those who don't know Slad, here is a very small introduction. For those who do, a small reminder.
