Overview

A varied walk from Groombridge across the Spa Valley railway(Toot! Toot!) and through the woods to Harrison's Rocks, returning via Motts Mill. Hopefully, the bluebells and wild garlic will still be looking as good as they did on the recce. Spot the Rhodies along the road looking magnificent as well !
