Overview

A wintery walk taking in Southwick village, through the surrounding countryside and over several stiles.  We head out to the Saxon church and 1000 year old yew tree at Boarhunt before carrying on to Southwick via Boarhunt Mill.  

Some of the ground is rather wet underfoot and there is some standing water.
