Overview

A circular walk with varied walking including some urban streets of Flackwell Heath.  A long slope up across fields from Bourne End gives spectacular views and, on the return, we walk a short delightful section of the Thames.  There is a short break for a snack and to view the gravestone of Edgar Wallace in Fern cemetery.  As the walk includes a section of the Thames path, please contact the leader if there is the chance of flooding or after a period of heavy rain.

Possibility of coffee afterwards in the nearby café.
