Overview

A relatively undemanding walk in which we will follow in the steps of the legions along the Roman Road out of Edenbridge before branching off to Christmas Place and then go back further in time to the large iron age multivallate hillfort at Dry Hill which we will circumnavigate. We will then follow the lane along the ridge before dropping down to Dormansland where we will stop for our picnic lunch and refreshments at the Plough.

After lunch our route will take us through St Piers and past Starborough Castle and across Edenbridge Airstrip as we follow the River Eden back into town.
