- Bletchley & Fenny Social Saturday 19th April
Saturday 19 April 2025
Afternoon everyone,
As the Bull and Butcher has reopened, I thought it would be an idea for this month's social to be at Bletchley & Fenny Stratford on Saturday 19th April.
Starting at 12 at the Three Trees 144 Buckingham Rd, Bletchley, Milton Keynes MK3 5JB
then onto Old Swan
Eight Belles
Captain Ridley's
Bull and Butcher
Swan Hotel
Red Lion
finishing at the Chequers.
The nearest bus stop is Shenley Road which is more or less outside the first pub, where you can catch the 4 or 4A. For those who catch the 5 or 6, you can either change at MK bus station for the 4, or stay on the same bus and get off at Bletchley bus station, it's then a 25 minute walk or so to the first pub. From end to end - if you get the 4 - it's a 45 minute walk or so.
Hope to see you all there!
