The river

A truly beautiful spot for a walk. Wander along the river in Lower Sunbury, feed the ducks, watch the boats go by and chill. It is very pretty here. A quaint church, some good pubs with gardens for meals ‘al fresco’ and ‘the walled garden’. Home to the famous Sunbury embroidery which was visited by the Queen, you can wander around the walled gardens and then pop into the café for some refreshments. This is staffed by volunteers. There is no charge to see the embroidery and you will recognise countless scenes and characters from around the village. My favourite is Mr Skinner, a well known character in the village who owned the Post Office for many years. Sadly he died last year and so it is even more fitting that he should be commemorated for posterity on the Sunbury Millenium Embroidery.
