 | Sunday, 5 May 2019 Weekend Walk - Woods Mill reserve and beyond May 2019 Many thanks to Marilyn and her friend Jen for finding and planning such a good walk, well chosen for early spring. This walk was divided into two halves, for the first section we left the reserve and set off down the road to join a foot path that took us across wonderful country side to the Downs Link long distance foot path and across to the river Arun. This took in fantastic hedgerows, some boggy fields and ponds and along the river bank. This was followed by a walk around the reserve itself, pretty woodland, a lake and some mysterious carved masonry, giving the impression of a ruined chapel. More... |
