The 3Rs Helpers will be at the 'spoons from about 09:00, leaving around 10:00 probably. As Mr Shred has pointed out, we go via Abberton Reservoir; from there to Maldon, then down to Latchingdon before turning for home via Stock. Abberton cafe (Essex Wildlife Trust) would be the obvious destination for elevenses, otherwise maybe the Steam Pump Tea Room at the Museum of Power, Langford, The Lock (Wilkins) at Heybridge Basin or Maldon itself (too many options to list).
