The Red Cow

\
Continuing our journey around some of the
local public houses I rode today along a disused railway line recently restored for cyclists and walkers from just at the end of the lane where I live The railway, from Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, to Dunstable in Bedfordshire, was opened in the year 1860 closing in 1965. I have lived in my bungalow when the line was still in operation. The Red Cow public house in Harpenden, Herts, as far as I can find out opened in the 19th century and serves a very nice meal. It is on a route restored by a charity named Sustrans (Google www.sustrans is you would like to find a traffic free route in the UK for a nice bike ride. With the daylight hours lengthening I will try to gert farther afield in the coming months. I hope you find this of interest. Best wishes, Harold
