The old Post Office in Diss is boarded up
A Walk to the Railway Tavern, Mellis, Suffolk - 13th October 2024
In keeping with the recent-ish discovery of Sunday pub walks, with the Scole Crossways and Hoxne Swan already done, we have a look on a map for any others and realise that the Railway Tavern in Mellis isn't really that far away - an eight-mile round trip as it turns out. So that's what we do, with a walk via Thrandeston and Judas Lane, followed by a couple of beers. Before that, the Northern Lights return for the second time this year.

The north-west sky is filled with light
The Northern Lights over the house
There's an almost-vertical stack of red
Another view of the aurorae over the house
Looking up at an electricty pylon
Isobel negotiates a small bridge
We walk across the fields to Thrandeston
Isobel pauses beyond another small bridge
Some cows give us the hairy eyeball
Isobel near the old pub in Thrandeston
We head off up Judas Lane
Judas Lane, between Thrandeston and Mellis
Isobel checks her phone
Some sort of pumping station in Mellis
The mysterious Mellis Garden's gates
Outside the Railway Tavern in Mellis
Mellis's stained-glass K6 phonebox
Isobel gets the beers in
The Tavern's train-like seating
Gypsy nags on Mellis common
Isobel feeds the horses some fresh grass
The ramshackle shed on the edge of Mellis common
Isobel on the road back to Thrandeston
Seagulls peck over freshly-ploughed soil
Isobel strides off up the road
A hare pauses in front of a stack of bales
Funky orange fungus on a log
An abandoned trailer of telegraph poles
Some sort of wrecked silos or tanks
Isobel wanders past a wrecked farm building
A roof is missing some corrugated iron
A perfect mushroom - upside down
A squirrel perches on a fence post
