Lunch option at the Royal Oak pub. Pre booking not required. There will be a picnic lunch option nearby, probably at Eyeworth Pond.

Our meeting point will be the carpark at Fritham which is opposite the Royal Oak public house.  (Do not use the carpark at Eyeworth Pond).   OS Grid Ref SU 229140.  The Sat Nav Postcode is SO43 7HL.  Participants are welcome to join us for just the morning or the afternoon.
