Autumn fun day


Groups from across Bristol awoke bright and early to catch the coach down to Escot, where we spent the day exploring park, with it's maze, playgrounds and Saxon village.

For the Bristol Venturers, our 13 – 16 year olds, the adventure started the day before with a train journey and overnight bivy before joining the fun day. While fun it was a very wet evening, some boots are not as waterproof as others!

We were also joined by our youngest members, the Woochips and our mascot Woodcraft Bear, who enjoyed the day out.
Playing skittles in the Saxon village







Oh dear, perhaps he shouldn’t have done that




Grinding flour, the Saxon way



Picnic lunch round the campfire


Meeting the wild boar


Fun on the drop slide

The famous Escot swamp walk.


Perhaps this one’s a bit deep for bears


A nice warm cup of tea sounds much better
