Sunday 20th Feb - loop walk from Lewes rail station to Glynde and back - way out over Lewes Down - short walk (2.5 niles) but over elevation - to pub (and rail) at Glynde - walk back via Glyndebourne to return to Lewes - 6 miles total. There is a link here but I'm suggesting we do the elevation first http://explore.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/os_routes/show/5173
Meet at 11am - bring people - lunch/snack - hope for good weather!

January Walk
Sorry about the late notice - but the third Sunday in January walk - Sunday 16th - will be a walk to Lewes - from Birighton - hope you can make it.
Meet at the top of Elm Grove at 11am - outside The Winner [pub] at the top of Elm Grove on the left as you leave town [291 Elm Grove]. We will walk to Lewes from here - first leg is slightly suburban - then uses part of the South Downs Way - before forking off through Kingston. We plan to have a drink in Lewes and then get the train back to Brighton. This is fairly low key walk - about 7.5 miles - with little in way of ascent once you've made it to the top of Elm Grove!

Apologies that this is really the 4th weekend of Nov - not really the third - but we are going for this date and this route:
Sunday November 28th Meet at 11am at the Bramber Castle roundabout just outside Steyning [Number 2A bus from Brighton at 9.45 gets into Steyning at ten to 11 - but some cars will be going so check in about lifts].
Route is a loop walk out to Chanctonbury Ring along the South Downs Way from Bramber Castle and then back to Bramber along base of downs - optional extension to Washington Village from Chanctonbury Ring for a drink - this loop is 7 miles.
Optional extension is to walk down to Shoreham station from Bramber - approx 4 miles addition. Transport can be bus + train for full route back to Shoreham - or bus for shorter loop to Steyning and back - or car for this too.
