Morecambe Bay




Last Sunday, Team Bradbury achieved a lifetime’s ambition to walk across the treacherous, shifting sands of Morecambe Bay.  We were guided by Cedric Robinson, the official Queen’s Guide who’s been leading parties over the 8 mile route from Arnside for forty years.  As the safe passage across continually changes with the tide, Cedric “reads” the sands each day, identifying areas of dangerous sinking sand and marking the route with laurel branches. It was with a sense of achievement that we waded across the deep water of the Kent Channel before turning inland to complete our journey safely at Kents Bank
