	Two At Large in Leicestershire
		At Burrough Hill (Parking £1) we (Ant, Daryl, L and R) ambled up to the hill fort and along the top of its ramparts.
		Once you are on the correct path it crosses several large fields in almost a straight line to meet the Leicestershire Round again at a t-junction, where we turned right towards the hill fort, where several kites were now making the most of its breezy height.
		The trick (we discovered after two ventures in the wrong direction) once you reach Somerby is to follow the signpost saying "Village Centre" and travel right through the village, passing the church and two pubs, and carry on until you meet the signs for the Country Park and its car park.
