	Walk #647: A circular walk from Oundle to King's Cliffe
		Fotheringhay Church was a grand structure but looked slightly odd to me — it was only after I had been looking at it for a while that I realised that it was out of proportion.
		A little further on another bridge is reached over the main river at a lock; cross the bridge and once on the other side follow a footpath that heads northwestwards, passing the motte and bailey of Fotheringhay Castle before entering the village of Fotheringhay itself.
		Once in Fotheringhay follow the road as it curves around past the church; when the road forks at the western end of the village take the right-hand fork that heads northwestwards until a footpath is reached on the left.

		Maria Stuarda (Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots), is imprisoned at Fotheringhay - she has written to enlist the support of Leicester and Talbot in arranging a meeting with Elisabeth.
