Welcome to Strolling Guides.

Welcome to Strolling Guides. This site is primarily a record the many places of interest (mostly in the UK) I have visited and photographed over the years, together with walks, relevant links and other useful information.

Introduction

There are two main ways to navigate this site:

The Geographic Index

Geographic Index
Drill-down to a specific location using the maps held in the Map Room.
The Subject Index

Subject Index
Find all the pages relating to a specific area of interest using the Subject Index

This is held in the Library along with the Archives, Site Map and the Walks Index.

Here in the Entrance Lobby you can check for news of recent site updates, find links to other general interest sites or search for specific information or photos.

Next door is the Shop and Games Room. The Shop doesnʼt sell anything any more, but there are some freebies like ecards and wallpapers on offer, along with some simple games.

Further down the corridor, past the cupboard holding the servers, are various workshops and administrative rooms. Not particularly interesting, but you are welcome to visit.

I decided that in order to support the changes I wanted to make to the location maps, I needed to perform some fairly radical surgery to the database; big mistake.

In doing so I managed to break a lot of stuff, and in the course of fixing things, broke a lot more.

I think everything is now back to working how it used to; now all I've got to do is remember what I was trying to achieve.

Mailing List

I have had to suspend my mailing list due to hackers, however, if you would like to know when I update this site, you can follow me on Twitter or on my Facebook page.

Purchasing Photos

I regret to say that it is no longer possible to buy prints from this site. However, please feel free to contact me, if you have any specific requirements.

Optimisation

This site was originally written to be viewed at a resolution of 800 x 600 or higher on a desktop or laptop computer. It has subsequently been adapted and works more or less okay on mobile phones and less so on tablets. Although most of the site is accessible, after a fashion without using JavaScript, the Slide Show, Games and one or two other functions cannot be made to work without it. There is more information in the FAQ.

General Disclaimer

In these litigious time I should perhaps point out that the world is full of dangers, both seen and unseen, and that not everyone you meet, necessarily, has your best interests at heart. I cannot and will not accept any responsibility for any loss or damage you sustain, however caused, whilst visiting any of the places mentioned in this site, or as a result of following links to other web sites mentioned herein.

In particular, you should not venture on to areas of open heath and moorland, such as the New Forest without a large-scale map of the area and a pair of decent walking shoes. Please bear in mind that mobile phone coverage, may be patchy away from the main centres of population.
