Horsell Common from the Fishpool
wool point your feet on a new path Horsell Common from the Fishpool Heather Farm, Wetlands, Stanners Hill Distance: 11 km=7 miles easy walking Region: Surrey Date written: 2-feb-2020 Author: Botafuego Last update: 21-jun-2020 Refreshments: Heather Farm Map: Explorer 160 (Windsor) but the map in this guide should be sufficient Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Long woodland trails, wetlands with boardwalks, lake, heath, grassy plains In Brief This is a fascinating walk of great variety, featuring long woodland trails, many of them unsigned, punctuated by some considerable surprises. The most notable of these is the Wetlands Centre where a boardwalk and good sandy paths keep you dry-shod, and where food and drink is available at the Heather Farm Café . There are no nettles and no troublesome undergrowth on this walk. Some of the paths on the north side are muddy in a wet winter but the lack of fencing means you can usually skip to either side. Provided you have good boots, you will enjoy this walk even (or especially) in winter. With very little road walking (and no stiles!), your dog will be very welcome on this walk. The walk begins at the Fishpool car park on Chobham Common, Surrey. The car park is just off The Gracious Pond Road. The not-very-near post- code is GU24 8HN , www.w3w.co/ mime.guards.candy , grid-ref: SU994636. -

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. The AONB designated in the same year incorporated the original AGLV area but was much larger including the Greensand Valleys, the whole of the Frensham / Devils Punch Bowl plateau and parts of the Wooded Weald. -
