15th October Walk Photos

Another lovely day, just like summer, 10¼ miles through The Mens ancient woodland and along parts of the old Wey and Arun Canal.

Those are some serious horns. We didn't have to walk through that field, but shortly after we crossed a field with a rather large bull.

Sometimes Ann will say "You must take a photograph of that, Keith," so I just do as I'm told. This was at Hawkhurst Court in the middle of The Mens.

That dog appeared when we stopped for lunch. I think he was after something.

1st October Walk Photos

Well, considering the forecast we were lucky with the weather, only one short shower. But didn't we have some wind!

Here we are taking a break.

I've cheated slightly with the rest of these photos - they were taken on the route we walked, but not on the day of the walk.

In the woods in Michelgrove Park.

This is one of my favourite views in this area. The farm (Lower Barpham) reminds me of the toy farm sets that kids used to play with.

Near Lee Farm.

17th September Walk Photos

Exactly 9 miles this time on a beautiful day's walk that took us from Lavington Common up onto the Downs, and back via Graffham Common.

This is the view from the spot where we stopped for lunch.

Walk on 1st October

Date: Sunday 1st October 2006

Time: 10.00am

Starting point: Car park at The Dover, grid ref TQ061064. Travelling east on the A27 from Arundel towards Worthing, just before you reach Hammerpot look for a large sign for Dover Lane on the left. Take this turn and follow the road past the farm to the end of the lane (just under half a mile). There's a car park in the woods on the right. From Worthing there's no right turn into Dover Lane, so travel west along the A27 past Hammerpot and look for a U-turn sign back to Worthing and Brighton, take this and then take the turn for Dover Lane as before.

This is a 12 mile walk I’m leading for the Sussex Pathfinders Rambling Club, but anyone can join us. N.B. There’s no pub stop on this walk.
