Overview

This autumn circular walk heads from Barns Green to the ancient church at Itchingfield. Then through woods and fields to pick up the Downs Link to Christ Hospital. It is on mainly good tracks but it may be muddy in places.

Please bring a substantial snack to have on route. A picnic lunch will be back of the cars or alternatively if you would like to join me for lunch at The Queens Head in Barns Green please let me know.
