This short walk follows an undulating route through several mostly ancient woodlands with a rich variety of plants and trees, up the southerly flank of Shooter’s Hill , past a large south facing meadow with far views across Southeast London and on through more woods past remnants of a stately home’s gardens to the architecturally interesting folly of Severndroog Castle . Along the way, we should hopefully find wood anemones and bluebells !

Enjoy the walk!
