Description de la randonnée

Start: The White Hart, Charter Alley (RG26 5QA) Grid ref. SU 594 577

(S/E) Turn left out of the pub and take the footpath on the right in 150yds, by the road junction. This is joined by another before reaching a lane, where turn left.

(1) In 300yds, turn right at a T-junction, then in a few yards turn left up a road and onto a footpath at the end. Follow this for 400yds and go left where it meets another footpath.

(2) This kinks right and skirts a small wood, then left for 300yds to join a metalled road.

(3) Turn left for 300yds, under the grid lines, then right into the drive of Ewhurst Park.

(4) Take the footpath to the left of the bridge and follow this, passing the lake on your right, till you come out onto the metalled lane. Go forward for about 500yds.

(5) Then take a track or a footpath on the left. They join near where the track bears left in some 600yds. Follow the track for another 600yds until a footpath diverges slightly to the right and crosses fields, bearing slightly right again and joining another footpath.

(6) Turn left. The footpath becomes a lane, and where this meets a road, go left then right by the church, and about 600yds along to the pub. (S/E)
