20th October A walk at Arundel.
On Saturday 20th October we called in at Arundel after the car boot sale at Ford.
We had a walk round the bottom of the town, admiring the items for sale at the farmer's market.
I bought 1Kg of salt licorice sweets in the old fashioned sweet shop.
We sat by the river and enjoyed a snack from The Riverside Cafe.
Bill is posing just in front of the table we had. It felt warm and sheltered there.
We took a walk below the castle and along a path we had not taken before across the water meadows to the river.

The castle stands above the town and river and is very impressive - built during the 19th century on a site of an earlier castle that may well have seen battle.

In this wide view shot you can see the Roman Catholic cathedral to the left of the castle.
The River Arun flowing down to the sea at Littlehampton. This view is up river to the South Downs - the river flows through a gap in the hills at Amberley.

The last little building on the left by the river is The Riverside Cafe where we started our walk.
