swcwalks, swcwalk 29, Ashurst Circular. 20/8/18.amib, Aug-18
Another lovely 12 miles of walking in the Weald, starting in Kent and crossing over into East Sussex.
Over dry water meadows today for lunch at St Michael's and All Angels at Withyham. A pub alternative exists as well.
Then, it's on through 500 Acre Wood to cross a very busy Pooh Bridge (The film, 'Christopher Robin', has recently been released, so this might have been why) and onto the village of Hartfield. Tea can be had here at 'Pooh Corner' (currently up for sale) in Piglet's Tea Room.
The journey back is across more meadows and a short repeat of the earlier walk, past Summerford Farm, and back to the station.
A decent walk, in decent weather, so no issues with mud, which could be a problem after heavy rain.
