East Surrey Walkers WALKS PROGRAMME & NEWSLETTER East Surrey Walkers WALKS PROGRAMME & NEWSLETTER APRIL - JUNE 2015 www.eastsurreywalkers.org.uk Chairman’s Chatter 2015 has started enthusiastically for ESW with good numbers on most walks; perhaps surprisingly much higher than during last summer. Not everyone can understand the attraction of walking in winter but I think many of us are glad to be outside, in the country, walking with our friends. Hopefully by the time you read this, the mud which has persisted on many routes will have reduced. Along with our existing members it's been good to see new faces on many of the walks, and thank you for making them welcome. As well as the traditional ways of attracting new members we now have Facebook and StreetLife entries. These are bringing ESW to the notice of new people who in turn have made favourable comments after joining a walk. Over the next couple of months we will be putting new posters and flyers in popular locations. If you know of new places where they should go, Keith Chesson will be glad of your help. Thanks to Tony P and Keith C for these initiatives. On 7th February ten ESW members attended the Ramblers Surrey Area AGM in Selsdon. After the routine business was completed, Des Garrahan, a Ramblers Trustee and the Lead Member for Development, spoke. He congratulated Surrey Area, firstly that the meeting was much better attended than most he goes to, and secondly that the Area has a full Committee. We are lucky to have people prepared to take on these roles. He pointed out that Ramblers was fortunate that volunteer duties are undertaken by an unusually large proportion, about 25%, of the 107,000 members. Des then went on to talk about the response to the Vision and Governance Proposals. Tony Pearson criticised the Vision document saying it was overambitious and overlong, given the limited resources available to Ramblers. It soon became clear that Tony's viewpoint had general support in the room. Des seemed surprised at the response, and said that the numerical targets in the draft Vision proposals had now been dropped. As regards the governance proposals, Des favours one member one vote for the election of trustees, and this will be the subject of a vote at the National AGM at the end of March. Ramblers is launching its ambitious Big Pathwatch project to survey the condition of every right of way in England and Wales between June and October 2015. This will enable the condition of paths in different parts of the country to be compared, and will identify the most common problems. ESW footpath secretaries already monitor the condition of local footpaths, but we will be looking for help with this project. Finally I hope that amongst the wide selection of ambles, walks, special walks, and social events described in this programme you will find plenty to enjoy this spring. Enjoy your walking!

Our Walks White Half-day circular walks The walks in the screen and website Blue Short Ambles versions of the programme are colour Green All day circular walks coded to aid selection: Yellow Midweek linear walks Beige Other days Ambles We now have a selection of short Ambles in the programme - these are typically circular, no more than 3 miles long and on the level, and are meant as introductory or social walks for those new to rambling, returning after illness or surgery or simply wanting a shorter, gentler walk for a change. They generally start (and end) at a venue where sociable cups of tea or coffee can be enjoyed. East Surrey Walkers APR-JUN 2015 Page 3 of 20 They take place on weekdays (other than Wednesdays) on a variable pattern so please refer to the Walks Programme for details. Circular Walks Two circular walks are held every weekend. We have a full-day walk of around 10-12 miles, usually entailing bringing a picnic lunch, and a shorter walk of around 5-6 miles, both with a 15 minute refreshment break mid-morning. The days for these long and short walks will alternate each weekend. On Wednesdays we also have a short 5-6 mile walk, sometimes on the same day as the linear walks, to offer an alternative. These shorter walks are usually, but not always, in the morning. We also have occasional walks on other weekdays. Mid-week Linear Walks On these days we tackle Long-Distance Footpaths in convenient stages of usually 8 - 12 miles. We normally walk on the first and third Wednesday of each month, and unless otherwise indicated lunch is at a pub where food is available. Where possible, start and finish points are arranged where public transport is accessible. The organisers (Nick and Bryan) will endeavour to co-ordinate travel arrangements, so if you haven’t been on any of these walks recently please contact one of us a few days beforehand in case any changes have been made to the published details. If you wish to make your own way to the walk start, please make sure you are there before the stated time, and let Nick or Bryan know. Nick maintains an email list of the regular linear walkers and many of us rely on that for last minute updates. ~~~~ At the start of the Downs Link Path © Bryan Petifer Our first two walks this quarter will complete our journey along the Downs Link Path, from Christ’s Hospital near Horsham to Shoreham-by-Sea on the Sussex East Surrey Walkers APR-JUN 2015 Page 4 of 20 coast. It should be easy springtime walking because it mostly follows the route of the old Guildford to Shoreham railway. We then switch to our main route for the summer months: The Monarch’s Way. We will be doing the last portion of this path, which follows King Charles II's escape route to France after his defeat by Cromwell’s army at the Battle of Worcester. The whole walk is over 600miles but we will pick up the King’s route at Owlesbury near Winchester for the final 85 miles to (once again for us) Shoreham-by-Sea on the Sussex coast. We finish this quarter at West Dean in West Sussex. Nick Walks Report We are delighted to present to you our Walks Programme for April to June 2015. Please browse through it, make a note of your favourites & come & join us. Please try to arrive 15 minutes before the walk is scheduled to start so that the leader can take your details, introduce the walk & leave promptly. All our walks are to be recommended but I would like to draw your attention to some unusual ones. • Sunday 19th April – a photography walk led by John Nathan in Staffhurst Woods. Equally enjoyable for others who enjoy ambling through bluebells. • Sunday 26th April – our annual walk with London Blind Ramblers ending with a delicious tea. • Monday 4th May – Bank holiday afternoon walk at Staffhurst followed by pub meal • Wednesday 13 May – a Birdwatch walk with local naturalist Peter Oliver, who will take us on a short walk from the edge of Limpsfield Chart, onto the farmland south of the ridge and introduce us to some of the birdlife in the area. Numbers will be limited, so pre-booking is necessary. • Saturday 23 May – David Woodcraft Commemorative Walk. Some of you will have known David, who died last year; he was a member for several years and led walks for us. We thought it would be fitting to remember him with a special walk in one of his favourite local areas. The walk will be followed by tea / coffee and cakes, held at the Reigate Heath Golf Club. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you knew David. Non-walking members are very welcome to join us for the tea. • Sunday 7th June – our annual cream tea at John & Di Nathan’s house in Limpsfield. Preceded by a choice of a long or short walk to stimulate your appetite. • Saturday 20 June – In the Steps of Walker Miles. To celebrate this ardent Victorian rambler we are organising a 4 mile walk in conjunction with St Nicholas Church, Godstone, followed by tea and cakes. Get into the spirit of the early 1900s by dressing as you think ramblers would have done then.

    Registered Charity No: 272098 ISSN 0585-9980 SURREY ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY CASTLE ARCH, GUILDFORD GU1 3SX Guildford 32454 Bulletin N u m b e r 2 8 9 December 1994/January 1995 COUNCIL NEWS Guildford Castle and Royal Palace Training Excavation At the barbecue on the final day two sheep are roasted in the traditional manner by refugees from Bosnia, now living in Surrey OBITUARY M i s s M A B e c k Jill Beck died after a short Illness on 17 August 1994, the day after her seventy seventh birthday. As Archlvlst-ln-Charge she presided over Guildford Muniment Room from January 1971 (when Dr Enid Dance retired) until her own retirement In 1982. The greater part of her working life was passed In Guildford, where her first job as an archivist had brought her to work (for six months that became three years, 1950-1953) in the Muniment Room, cataloguing the Loseley MSS on behalf of the Historical Manuscripts Commission. After eight years organising the archives at Petworth House she then returned to Guildford as assistant archivist in 1961. Jill was modest about her own achievements and would lay claim only to having a good memory. She brought to her archival tasks many other advantages: a well organised mind, the highest standards of scholarship and a natural grace of style. All those who used the Muniment Room during the twenty five years that she worked there will testify to her apparently almost infinite patience and helpfulness, and all present and future historians of Surrey are indebted to her for the excellence of the lists and indexes she produced.

This states that a landscape character assessment linked to criteria based policy approach should provide sufficient protection for these areas provided such designations are based on a formal and robust assessment of the qualities of the landscape concerned. Against this background, Chris Burnett Associates (CBA) were commissioned to undertake a review of the Surrey AGLV by the Surrey Planning Officers Association. (SPOA) The study commenced with a review of historic background. It established that the Surrey Hills AONB is closely linked with the designation of the AGLV. The first County Plan approved in 1958 showed the first AGLV area, which was a smaller area incorporating the North Downs escarpment and the area of Greensand Hills surrounding Leith Hill.

  • Overview of SWT Plans to Deal with Ash
    West Surrey Badger Group, Surrey Dormouse Group and Surrey Bat Group views on the Surrey Wildlife Trust’s plan for Ash Dieback on their countryside estate. Context Ash Dieback (ADB) is a disease of ash trees caused by the fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus originating in Asia. It appeared first in Eastern Europe in about 1992 and has since moved westward, reaching the UK in 2012. It is now found across the entire UK, including Surrey, where most ash trees are believed to be infected. Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) is the third most common tree in England, and is found on most Surrey sites. ADB causes defoliation, crown dieback, and in many cases, leads to the death of the tree. The questions this raises are • Will all ash trees become infected? This seems very likely – most are probably already infected. • Will all ash trees show symptoms? Many will, although not necessarily all, and the severity will vary. Established, mature trees in mixed woodland seem least affected. • Will all ash trees die? This is uncertain. Across Europe, based on studies over the past 20 years, maximum mortality figures so far for natural woodland (as against plantations) seem to be around 70% (Ref 1). • How quickly will this happen? Again this is uncertain. It varies according to local conditions, the state and make-up of the woodland and the weather. Given around 30% of trees are still alive after up to 20 years, it won’t happen all at once, but trees are already showing symptoms in Surrey. A study in France & Belgium showed that for trees >25cm, annual mortality reached 3.2% after 8-9 years of pathogen presence, while for trees >5cm but<25cm it was ~10%.
