Overview

A 9.5 mile circular walk starting in the delightful village of Hartfield. We walk on the old railway line before heading north uphill to the aptly named Top-Hill Farm and then drop down to Ashhurst village on the Kent / Sussex border. It's uphill again to enjoy one of the best vistas in the area overloking the Medway and the Ashdown Forest. We then follow the Medway via the Wealdway path before heading back to Hartfiled via Withyham and it's marvellous church.
