Lathom Park, Lancashire: Real War Horses

The route for our 3.9314 miles (6.327 km) Sunday Meander has been saved and is available at...
Our walk today started outside Lathom Park, the majestic house long gone.

The number of horses we saw, on our meander, shouldn't be a surprise as, during the war, thousands of horses – and men - were trained at Lathom Park near Ormskirk
Lord Lathom had offered his land so the horses could be prepared for their duties at the front line.

All in all, a nice day, an enjoyable walk and one I'm sure we'll do again; perhaps with some variations.
