Overview

This walk takes you from the former site of a mustard magnate's house and gardens to the Banstead Downs, across chalk grassland, a rare and wildlife-rich habitat created by the early farmers, who removed the original woodland cover to create fields for their crops and livestock.

Urban in parts , significant sections are flat/paved/both so low on the Ramblers mud index. More traffic lights than sheep today.
