Overview

Climb steadily to Wepham Down then descend south past the gallops to Gibbet Piece and on down via a series of copses eventually emerging on Clay Lane in Warningcamp. Follow the lane for a short distance before branching off to descend a deep valley and then up again to arrive back at Burpham via Splash Farm.
