| Features
|
Despite its proximity to London, this walk is surprisingly rural in
character, passing through fields, woods and quiet valleys, often along
shady bridleways. The second half of the walk is entirely within a London
borough, though it does not feel like it. Although there are few noteworthy
features, the gently rolling countryside provides some fine vistas, and the
lunchtime pub is a real gem.
