Walk Report

Billingshurst Circular, Saturday 30th March 2019
19 walkers, 21.4 miles – leader Lonica Vanclay
Fabulous sunny spring weather with the flowers, blossoms and even some fresh green leaf shoots out in their full glory. 18 walkers joined me for a 21 mile walk from Billingshurst through fields, woods, heathlands and river meadows and even a vineyard. Some beautiful timbered old houses en route ... and cows, horses, alpacas and a deer ... and even some decent mud. Just one short sharp hill and a few gentle rises giving great views of the South Downs and the Weald the other side. A quintessential English spring day’s walk. Some of us raced to catch the train so not even a wait for that; others finished the day with a tipple in the very busy pub.
