Scaling Dam

We really went on a bit of a scoping visit, pending a possible return in the autumn. I had read somewhere that the walk around the dam was partially accessible. We did the accessible section but then turned back. Later, we will attempt the 'non-accessible' section too, but on a summer's day, I was too hot and tired to do the whole circular walk. However, the walk does continue all the way round and, in theory, it should be reasonably level, as it follows the water level. We visited mid-August, which often means lots of nettles and wasps (both my nemesis!) However, this walk had neither. The path is wide and well kept. Beautiful bright yellow flowers on both sides but apart from occasional bumble bees, we didn't see anything that stings.
