Overview

We start through the woods of Hesworth Common, where there are good views of the South Downs, we then continue to Lower Fittleworth and Fittleworth Common. The walk continues past Limbourne Farm, skirting the edge of Fittleworth Woods and up to Lithersgate Common and on to Bedham. We will then pick up the Diamond Way, across Flexham Park and return to the start via Riverhill, Little Bognor, Egdean Common and Fittleworth House.
