Overview

From the village green at West Peckham we'll take the Greensand Way and then descend through the Oxon Hoath estate with fine views of Hadlow Tower (the tallest folly in the UK and 6’ taller than Nelson’s Column). We’ll return via farmland, orchards and woodland. The second half of the walk is a steady incline. Approximately five stiles. Dogs welcome on short leads but please note we may encounter horses and sheep in some fields.
