Overview

 

A car free circular walk over the North Down

A walk from Farnborough to Knockholt Pound, about 5.5 miles over familiar paths, for lunch at one of Mike's favourite pubs, The Three Horseshoes, or a picnic on the green outside.  After lunch, we return over more familiar paths back to Farnborough. 

It is possible for anybody wishing a shorter walk to catch a bus from outside the pub back to the bottom of Farnborough Hill.
