Overview

I've replanned this walk to make better use of the extra distance a Sunday walk involves. We start at the usual Cheriton recreation ground car park, head off South West, cross the A272 and join the South Downs Way at the (newly opened) Milbury's pub for a while. Off the ridge via Kilmeston and back into Cheriton, passing Hinton Ampner. Probably  8.25 miles, although my always-exaggerating tracker suggests a bit more. A few stiles, a few modest hills, a little mud, more if we get a lot of rain in the last few days. Nothing we've not seen a million times before.
