Overview

In Celebration of Agatha Christie.
Agatha Christie was born on 15 September 1890 so what better way to celebrate her birthday than walk where she spent the final years of her life.
We start in Wallingford, passing places where Agatha frequented, then follow the River Thames for 3 miles to Moulsford.
Here we leave the Thames and go across country to Cholsey for lunch and visit her grave.
We then walk alongside "The Bunkline" railway back to Wallingford, going past her home in Winterbrook.
