Overview

This walk was cancelled last autumn due to bad weather, let's hope for better luck this time.

After "descending" from the village we walk along the bank of the Rother and Potman's Heath Channel, then on to what is a mainly flat route across arable farmland (please be careful not to trample crops). A slightly undulating section will bring us to lunch at Small Hythe church next to Smallhythe Place where NT members might wish to take advantage of their picnic area.
