Church on Crooms Hill
From there instead of going straight yhrough Greenwich Park past the Rose Garden and Rangers House to the observatory, I struck out to the East, through some lovely flower gardens to the Deer enclosure.
Yes there were deer, but they were sitting around under trees some distance away, and no photos were any good. I will return in September when the bucks are rutting and may be able to see more.
Apparently they used to be throughout the park, but over the years they have been secluded to one corner.
Rather than return back through the centre I followed the path down the east side of Greenwich park until I came to One Tree Hill. This was the best view of London I have had and there was enough sun to see across to town, with the Shard and the Eye. The view from observatory is not as good as there are trees all around.

So kept walking down to the town centre next to the Old Maritime college and Cutty Sark, and then headed back towards home with the weather strting to cloud over.
Bought some fixings for dinner and sausage rolls to make in next few days. Relaxed at home and made beef wellingtons for the girls, but Fi did not get home until nearly 11.00! So late dinner and she has headed off to work again.
We are off to Beaconsfield tonight to see Howie and Ness, so will advise of that episode tomorrow.
