Overview

The walk starting in Cheriton leads to Cheriton Mill then along a short stretch of the Wayfarer's Walk then onto Badshear.  The walk then goes across fields to join Appledown Lane. The route then passes the site of the Cheriton battlefields then returns to Cheriton.

Sections of the walk are very muddy so boots/wellies/poles are recommended.  There are only four stiles and there are horses in two the fields on the section towards Cheriton Mill. (picnic lunch)
