Overview

We walk from high on the Downs via the ancient church at Bishopstone to the coast path and the abandoned village of Tide Mills.  Excellent information boards tell the story of the rise and fall of this settlement and its founder who was buried at Bishopstone.  We make our way up through Newhaven back into the countryside and return up to the start.  Not too much mud, although the chalk can be slippery.
