Overview

From the car park we will walk along the North Downs Way, before walking down the Downs into Wouldham village. There we walk under Peter's Bridge to Burham Church, where we will stop for refreshments. We will then walk through Burham village back up the Downs to the car park, following footpaths. This involves climbing up some hills, but we will keep it slow. The church in Burham is worth looking in and you can view the interpretive plaques under Peters Bridge which give information about the past industry along this part of the Medway. Great views from Bluebell Hill Car Park
