  • Ashurst Circular Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Ashurst Circular walk A walk via Pooh Bridge to the attractive Wealden village of Hartfield, with a longer option over the elevated heathland of Ashdown Forest. Length Main Walk: 19½ km (12.1 miles). Four hours 45 minutes walking time. For the whole excursion including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 9½ hours. Long Circular Walk: 24¼ km (15.0 miles). Six hours walking time. Short Circular Walk: 15 km (9.3 miles). Three hours 30 minutes walking time. OS Map Explorer 135. Ashurst, map reference TQ507388, is on the East Sussex/Kent border, between East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells. Toughness 5 out of 10 (7 for the Long Walk, 3 for the Short Walk). Features This walk makes a gentle start along the Medway valley, soon joining the Wealdway long-distance path. After an early pub lunch in the small village of Withyham with its notable parish church there is a choice of three routes. All lead eventually to the neighbouring village of Hartfield, associated with the author AA Milne and his most famous creation: coachloads of tourists regularly descend on Pooh Corner to buy all manner of Winnie-the-Pooh memorabilia. The Short Walk heads directly for this village, while the other variations continue through the extensive Buckhurst Estate into Five Hundred Acre Wood. This is the furthest point for the Main Walk, which crosses the famous Pooh Bridge on its way round to Hartfield. The Long Walk climbs steadily through the wood and continues around the rim of a valley in Ashdown Forest, the largest area of elevated heathland in south-east England.

The walk can be divided into two shorter walks: Villages and Poohsticks (10½ or 9½ km=6½ or 5½ miles) is the twisty northern walk. Clumps and Sandpits (10 km=6 miles) is the breezy southern walk which takes in the wilder spaces and the other Pooh sites. There are a few nettles in the northern walk near Hartfield and some brambles a little later, making shorts inadvisable.

We often hear politicians talk about it, the press are quick to point out what is or isn’t, in their mind, fair. People are always interested in getting their ‘fair share’ and I’m sure many of us have heard a child’s plaintive cry of “It’s not fair”. However the cartoon shows that fair is not always best. Although the Bible does talk of fairness and judging fairly it seems far more interested in justice and freedom. One of the ideas people find in the Bible is that of a ‘preferential option for the poor’.

  • Alfriston and the Long
    point your feet on a new path Alfriston and the Long Man Distance: 15 km=9½ miles moderate-to-easy walking Region: East Sussex Date written: 12-jul-2014 Author: Hautboy Last update: 20-jul-2020 Refreshments: Litlington, Alfriston, Wilmington Map: Explorer 123 (Eastbourne) but the maps in this guide should suffice 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. Giant figure, high hills, villages, nature reserve, river, historic buildings In Brief This is a walk with great variety: a mysterious giant, high hills, a vast nature reserve where you can lose yourself in the wilds, a river, ancient churches and other buildings, country pubs with character; and to cap it all, East Sussex's arguably most picturesque village. True to our site's motto, this walk takes you on a lonely unmapped path. There are too many perfect places to take refreshment, so you are spoilt for choice. To enquire at the Plough and Harrow in Litlington, ring 01323-870632. Litlington also has the most delightful tea garden. Alfriston has three pubs and numerous tea- shops and restaurants. Finally, in the starting/ending village of Wilmington there is an ideal pub/restaurant. There are some nettles on this walk but only on the fringes of the paths. It was walked in Merrell shoes but boots would be a comfort, especially in winter, because of several muddy patches on the bridleway after Folkington, to say nothing of the long hike.

  • Newsletter 173 Final
    NORTH WEST KENT GROUP OF THE RAMBLERS NEWSLETTER (FOR WALK PROGRAMME 172) June - September 2021 Dear friends…After a long absence we are back with our usual programme of walks. Hopefully, you have kept safe and well during this difficult period. If there is a silver lining to the pandemic, it is the discovery of hidden delights when walking locally. The pandemic severely disrupted the Group’s affairs, suspending our walk programme and cancelling the annual picnic, Xmas lunch and group holiday (though, later, some of our walkers enjoyed a short break in Devon). When restrictions eased sufficiently we introduced rolling walks programmes where walks had to be booked in advance, numbers were restricted to no more than twelve, pub stops were no longer possible. Despite the stops, starts and difficulties imposed by tiers and travel restrictions our leaders rose to the challenge. I am greatly indebted to our leaders for their patience, flexibility and resilience. I cannot thank them enough. But the disruptions meant we had to rely on the internet and email to keep members informed. Now we are slowly getting back to normal. There is no longer a restriction on numbers on group walks and no need to book in advance, though it is still necessary to keep a register. We are especially delighted to have welcomed many new members following a national upsurge of interest in walking. I hope you will all be able to join us on some of our walks in this programme. Sadly, since our last newsletter 18 months ago, a number of members who have given so much to the Group over many years have passed away.

  • 4 the Rights of Way Network in East Sussex
    4 The Rights of Way Network in East Sussex 4.1 Facts and Figures 4.1.1 The network of public rights of way in East Sussex is approximately 2,211 miles (3,558km), broken down as follows: Percentage of the total Classification of Public Right of Way miles kilometres network Public Footpaths 1,614 2,597 73% Public Bridleways 465 748 21% Restricted Byways (former RUPPs) 88 142 4% Byways Open to All Traffic 44 71 2% Map showing the public rights of way network in East Sussex © Crown Copyright. All rights reserved. East Sussex County Council 100019601.2006 4.1.2 Public rights of way include the following designations: • Public footpaths are public rights of way on foot only; • Public bridleways are available to the public on foot, horse back, leading a horse and bicycle; • Byways open to all traffic carry full highway rights for all users including motorists; • Restricted byways are open to those that can use a bridleway and non- motorised vehicles (such as a horse and cart). 27 All public rights of way are legally open to mobility vehicles for disabled people. However, many public rights of way (especially many footpaths) are not physically available to mobility vehicles (see 5.6). 4.1.3 The introduction of geographic information systems (computerised or digitised mapping) and GPS (global positioning system) means that there is greater opportunity for public rights of way records to be updated more accurately. More detail on the use of computerised mapping can be found in 5.11. 4.1.4 The make up of the rights of way network differs greatly between the South Downs and the rest of the county.
