Ten of us started out
from the car park at Friday Street to cover the 6 to 7 mile route in the area
of Leith Hill, ably led by Jenny Page. The weather proved the forecasters wrong
yet again with blue skies appearing shortly after the walk rather than the
predicted overcast conditions.
There were two refreshment stops, the first just
under a mile before reaching the pub at Coldharbour (Jenny must have known the
pub would have been shut) and the second at the top of Leith Hill from where
there were good views across the Weald to the South Downs and beyond. A very
slight haze prevented us from seeing the sea through one of the gaps in the
South Downs.
Having picked up an additional SWSW member at the top of Leith Hill we
proceeded back to the Stephan Langton pub where all but two of us decided that
a visit was an essential part of the walk. The attached photo’s show the queue
at the Leith Hill food bar, views over the Weald with some SWSW members in the
foreground and the group hightailing it off to the pub Thanks go to Jenny
for leading such an enjoyable walk.
