Overview

A chance for those who can only walk at weekends to join us for a longer walk with the Group. Starting at Lockerley Church, the walk heads west to the top of West Dean Hill with its wonderful views to the north.   We then head south across open fields, through woodlands and along enclosed ancient tracks back towards Lockerley.  There are a few stiles along the way so not a walk suitable for those with dogs.   Please bring a picnic lunch.
