The Easeboune group headed from The Cowdray Cafe along Hollist Lane before turning up to visit the countryside around Buddington. Then along through the field next to Hollist Lane to reach Woolbeding. A quick check to see the nature of the building work next to the house - it's a large greenhouse and associated landscaping. After crossing Woolbeding bridge we followed the Rother back to the Mill before walking past the polo grounds and finally reaching the car park .- About 5 miles.

Five miles

Peter's walk started from the cricket ground car park opposite the Three Horseshoes in Elsted, The walk passed the old cemetry outside of Treyford and the remains of the 11th Century church of St Mary's Church Treyford. Saved from complete ruin by the generosity of the owners of Treyford Manor and English Heritage, it is now a Scheduled Monument. Next was a look around St Andrew's Church, Didling before returning via Manor Farm, Bertie Mitchell's and then to Elsted village. It was good to see that the Three Horseshoes was very busy once again.
