Rose boys walking diary: Stage 4 of the Wye valley walk

Symonds yat to Kerne bridge
Just too clear up any confusion about the jump in the stages, we walked stage 2 and took a taxi through 4. Now that the confusion has cleared I'll talk about my day! Today we woke up, not entirely sorry to see our inn go, for such a high rating, it didn't seem quite as luxurious as I had hoped! So we set off heading up to a local viewpoint where we were able to see our entire walk! (We thought it was ludicrous that we would be able to walk all that way, but we did it and had time to spare!) We walked down to the river Wye and walked along the river bank into a field full of sheep and pheasants, and I can now confirm that pheasants do go gobble gobble! Then we made our way to a disused railway bridge. It broke a couple of years ago and now it is just a temporary bridge that looks like a box with scaffolding around it. We then walked on, Gus and I pining for lunch, and we came to a field. We couldn't go under it we couldn't go over it, uh oh! We had to go through it! It was full of murderous looking cows though, and it seemed to us at the time that they were slowly making our way towards us and giving us the evil eye! But it was alright though, we had voted that Gus was the one to be left behind in case of a cow attack and Gus, well, didn't really have a choice! We stopped, Hamish finally listening to our pleas for food and rest, in the next field. However the inhabitants (sheep) got closer and closer until we were forced to move! We finally arrived at Kerne bridge and then walked down to the local village of Goodrich, named after the local castle. Our inn was lovely and we had a good dinner and fitful sleep, ready for the day ahead!
