We are the Eastleigh Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

From Lockerley Church the walk heads west to the top of West Dean Hill with its wonderful views to the north. We then head south to Rowden Farm and back to Lockerley via Gartmore Copse and Telegraph House, with wonderful views both to the east and west.
There is a short stretch of road to negotiate, with care, and a few stiles. There's bound to be mud so boots and poles are advisable.
Anyone nervous of animals should be aware that there is a field with some "inquisitive" horses to pass through.
Please bring provisions for a coffee stop and picnic lunch.
If you don't regularly attend our weekend walks, it would be appreciated if you could inform the walk leader if you would like to join us, by 8pm the day before.
Please ensure you carry your Ramblers In Case of Emergency (ICE) card.
With special thanks to Les Mildon from Romsey Ramblers for letting me shamelessly plagiarise his walk!
Layby at Lockerley Church. If there is insufficient space, please use the layby about 100m north at the Scout Hut.
