Overview

Walking South towards Gallops Farm, passing Findon Park House on our way to view Cissbury Ring, iron age fort.  We then follow the Monarch's Way through Canada Bottom toward Steyning Bowl, with a trig point at Steep Down.  The South Downs Way leads to Lion's Bank and Chanctonbury Ring, with its iconic group of trees on the ridge visible from many locations!   Great views on this walk, with a glimpse of the sea.
