About the event
Take a scenic journey passing hop gardens, woodlands, and vineyards. Winding along peaceful footpaths and tracks, the route crosses the historic Kent Ditch (a centuries-old boundary feature marking the edge of Kent and Sussex) before wandering past Oast Houses with their distinctive cowls. It is worth keeping an eye out for buzzards overhead. Whether drawn by history, countryside charm, or a well-earned pint in a village pub at journey’s end, this walk offers an interesting meander in one of the South East's finest medieval landscapes.
