After a short walk we visit the Church of St Michael's and All the Angels with paintings by Vanessa Bell (sister of Virginia Wolf). We continue onto Alfriston for pub lunch/picnic and then up and over the South Downs with views of the Long Man of Wilmington. Our walk ends at Wilmington where the Yew Tree in the church yard is believed to be 1,600 yeas old. Steep ascent and descent of the South Downs. Possible drink in the pub at Wilmington. Bus back to Polegate to catch the train back to East Croydon. Buy a return to Polegate.
Update: Due to catching the H1 Community mini bus from Wilmington at the end of the walk (at 5.13 pm) numbers on this walk are limited to 10. Lunch Will be at the George Inn Alfriston (or picnic).
The distance is slightly less than in the programme (6.5 miles). Contact me by Friday 20th to book a place on this walk, for pub lunch and for a possible share in a Day Save Ticket (£13 each when travelling in groups of 4).
