You might consider boarding the 10:23 train from Platform 3 rather than the 10:17 from Platform 6 (in original programme) as it gets to Crawley about 10 minutes earlier, allowing time for a coffee before crossing the road by the main station exit for the bus station where we get the 273 to the start of the walk.
