Overview

Coffee/toilets at Claremont NT (card not required). Cross the road to the common and ascend to The Ledges, good views of the snaking Mole, then across the common for lunch (pub/picnic). Return by a different route to the 715 stop back to Kingston. Optional visit to the NT Claremont Landscape Garden. An alternative route either outward or homeward is the SL7 bus. Bus Checker gives the departure from Sutton Grove Road as 09:53 but the 09:39 (or 09:25 even) is probably safer for the connection in Kingston. Text me to book by Monday 6pm.
