Leigh and Penshurst walk.
Main Walk, from Leigh to Penshurst: 13½ km (8.4 miles). Three hours 10 minutes walking time. For the whole excursion including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 8 hours.
This is a group of walks to and from adjacent stations on the Redhill–Tonbridge line, all centred around the hamlet of Hoath Corner and its traditional rural pub: “all dogs very welcome…children must be kept on a lead!”. The link routes to and from Leigh station have been taken from the Leigh to Tunbridge Wells walk (1–15) and the Hever to Leigh walk (1–19), but the other sections are in less familiar Wealden territory.
The Main Walk options start from Leigh station and head west through parkland to the attractive village of Penshurst. After crossing the River Eden there is a gentle climb from Salmans Manor to the lunch pub in Hoath Corner. The Alternative Walk options start from Penshurst station (almost 3 km north of its village, in Chiddingstone Causeway) and head south through low-lying farmland in the Eden valley to join the other route at Salmans Manor.
