Overview

We start at the primary school and walk through the town to the Quay.  We then walk along the banks of the River Ore to Butley Ferry and the smokehouse.  We should see lots of birds on Havergate Island and even the colony of seals.  We then head inland towards Sudbourne Park and the castle before heading back to the town, and maybe light refreshments.
