Sounds more like a warning than an invitation to walk the route!

Seems like no one cares for the local area either, what with all that graffiti. Such a shame, from the one photograph the place doesn't look that bad.

Treating this as a puzzle, the Ian Visits link seems to indicate north of London, and the whiff of sewage says Lea Valley to me.

It was written as a puzzle.

I can't recall any sections of the Loop that seem to combine such a selection of churches, gardens and woodland.
None of it sounds like the section with the sundial that I walked recently.
Intrigued to know where it is

Linda Robson has written a novel?
dg writes: on closer inspection a memoir, sorry.

I don't think it has any connection with the London Loop, necessarily. The word Loop is used partly because it is so shaped, but also I suspect the "official" name, on the website or document where DG found it, and on any still-existing information boards and waymarkers is "The Somewhere Loop"

"Wilma is one of a kind"
I mean I'd go with Betty... but I'd be thinking of Wilma.

Though written as a puzzle with clues, to me there is actually almost zero useful information to pin the walk down.

Since noon I've been additional phrases, hourly, starting with the first paragraph then the second, etc.

Possibly somewhere in Havering: the river could plausibly be the Ingrebourne.

Is it Epping Forest?

The lack of concrete detail lends today's post an abstract, almost poetic tone. I'm thinking "Two roads diverged, in a yellow wood".

The BBF aircraft flight path came into London across the northern parts of Havering and Redbridge which both have areas of countryside. Is walk around or near Hainault?
The reference to Linda Robson might mean that Chigwell (neighbouring Hainault with its Forest) is also on this loop.

I've now added 10 additional clues, one per paragraph.
I can confirm that none of the four guesses so far are close.

Birds with large bills and a cottage garden - St James's Park.
And that coffee shop on the corner is exceptionally expensive

Then Westminster Bridge and along the South Bank.

Based on Tom's comments, the Western Loop of the Jubilee Walkway?

Some distance from central London? I ruled out the pelicans etc on that basis.

I said "some distance from the centre of London", not from central London.
And that distance was 35 metres.
