Overview

A country walk through fields and woods and with short stretches on country lanes.  There are good views towards London and hopefully the chance to see bluebells and other spring flowers.  The terrain is hilly, with one flight of steps down, and there are quite a few stiles.  Lunch stop will be in Downe Village.
