Overview

A figure of eight walk taking in parts of the Wealdway and Vanguard Way, passing Fairwarp, Cackle Street and Duddleswell. Lots of woodland walking and some nice views.

Two crossings of the busy A26. There are some stiles mainly in the middle part of the walk but none are very challenging. The only animals seen on the recce were sheep and deer. Expect mud as usual at this time of year.

Meet at Sweethaws Lane, Crowborough at 9:45 am. Access from the A26 (Beacon Road) turning into Sheep Plain and then immediately right into Sweethaws Lane. Continue for only about 200 yards, past a golf green on the left. Pass some trees and turn left, slightly downhill, into the parking area on the right-hand side. Take care as it may be slippery if there is a lot of rain.
