Radical Stroud’s June walk is a week-early Jo Cox Memorial Walk: Meet at Rodborough Church, Friday June 15th at 10; returning to the church at 1pm. We shall be investigating the medieval history of Rodborough from the days when it was still owned as part of the Manor Minchinhampton by the Abbess of Caen. A trail that takes in several recorded medieval residences and places. The idea would be to go down Kingscourt Lane to Kingscourt and thence towards Rodborough Manor then up to Rodborough Common. The walk would take us to meet the De Rodboroughs, the Achards, the Cynnes, and to the forgotten Horestone marking an old boundary and up to the vanished Rodborough Common Wood. We shall also, natch, commemorate Wat Tyler, leader of the Peasant’s Revolt, murdered on June 15th, 1381. Readings and psychogeographical musing as per. Led by Robin Treefellow.
