Rowlands Castle

13 June 2020. Chris and I have done this walk about 5 times but the last time was two years ago and we can’t find any photographs taken so those included are taken from the internet (all public domain so far as we can ascertain), but they are, sadly, rather Read more…

Manningtree circular

6 June 2020. I had intended to lead a ramble from Gomshall to Shere, a walk that Rosemarie was happy to hand over to me, but as I had no chance to recce it I decided to take you instead on one of my favourite walks through Constable country, a Read more…

Wrabness to Harwich

Saturday 30 May. On this gloriously sunny day, with the promise of a gentle breeze, welcome to the last leg of the Essex Way – or first leg, if you are doing the route from east to west. I haven’t had the opportunity to do this walk yet so the Read more…

Robertsbridge circular

This is a truly virtual walk, as I have never done it. It is a wealden walk on the Sussex-Kent border, with views across the Rother valley and lunch beside Bodiam Castle.

Apsley to Hemel Hempstead

Before we start this virtual walk I’d like to tell you about the first time I led this ramble in 2008.  Andrea had brought her granddaughter who was not used what she thought were ‘wild’ animals – cows, sheep, horses. Until she met this small but sturdy spotted horse. Now, Read more…

A walk from Balcombe

I am missing the bluebells…. Thank you to Sue H for her link to the bluebell woods on her walk. This year’s walk from Balcombe was intended to provide us with other great views in the woods near Wakehurst Place. But I hope some of you have had some luck Read more…

East Grinstead circular

April 2020. Our 10 mile walk starts through the normally busy Saturday streets of the town but we have an opportunity to socially distance ourselves from the high street and detour past the pretty church. Outside Sackville College, a Jacobean Almshouse, where all residents are currently self-isolating, we pass the Read more…

Box Hill to Holmwood

18 April 2020. The Box Hill to Holmwood walk was inspired by a legendary walk of 32 miles from Epsom to Leatherhead, undertaken in 1925 by a group of the Morley Ramblers who called themselves the ‘strens’ (short for strenuous). Don’t worry – this is a shorter version of the Read more…
