An undulating walk via Holden Farm, The Millbury, Kilmeston and Hinton Ampner. The outward route follows a section of the South Downs Way and the return route a section of both the Wayfarer’s Walk and Itchen Way. On the last part of the walk back to Cheriton we will be able to see the site of the Battle of Cheriton on 29th March 1644.

No booking required.
