  This was the shortened version of this walk, omitting the well-trodden route via West Firle. This 11.6 mile version ascended the Downs via the quieter Beddingham Hill (190m).

  Both routes follow common ground via Lewes golf course and Souterham Nature Reserve, with great views of Mount Caburn and surrounds. Then, the same descent into the village of Glynde, before a parting of the ways just after crossing the busy A24 at Preston Court.

  A picnic lunch is had on Beddingham Hill, after a steady climb, with further wonderful views. Thereafter, it's a steady descent into Bishopstone, via the hamlet of Norton, with views of the Channel and Newhaven. A train back to either Brighton, or Lewes/London, can be caught at Bishopstone, or, as in this case, it's a short section of the Vanguard Way/Sussex Ouse Valley Way along the shingle coast to Seaford.

  P.S. Wind-affected commentary! This walk was filmed on 18th August and not July as mentioned on the commentary. Likewise, it's the A24, not the A27.
