amib, Jan-11

Around 13 miles of walking through this quiet corner of Hampshire; firstly, crossing wide upland fields to East Worldham, then on through woods, 'hangers' and hidden pastures to Selbourne for lunch. Afterwards, it's on across wooded Selbourne Common and gentle downland ridges to Chawton and Jane Austen's home. From there, Alton it's just a few more miles to Alton.
