Then south through Stutton, past Royal Hospital School, Harkstead, Shotley and Shotley Gate (where we will see a Martello tower) and then we cross the River Stour and Harwich Harbour via the little foot and cycle ferry that has connected Suffolk and Essex since 1912.  https://www.harwichharbourferry.com
We will be stopping in a pub for lunch or cafe along the way and hopefully somewhere for morning or afternoon tea but bring snacks just in case we find places are full.
Arriving in Old Harwich with its lovely old streets, we pass old lighthouses, the pier, the redoubt fort and the sea shore before arriving at Harwich Town station where we take the train home.

See email sent to members on 14 August for how to book a place on this ride and meeting arrangements.

2 mile coastal finish. Sunday will have civilised teperatures and it
should be a refreshing walk after all the sultriness. Who could ask for
anything more?

The only fly in the ointment is the journey down to Glynde. Ordinarily
we could take a train all the way from Victoria with a shorter journey
time but they will be disrupted because of the train derailment near
Haywards Heath. So we will have to go via Brighton, changing at Lewes. I
suggest the train starting at St Pancras at 09.22. This train calls at
Farringdon at 09.26, Blackfriars at 09.30 and East Croydon at 09.58. It
arrives at Brighton at 10.53.

From Brighton we take the 10.58 Eastbourne bound train and go 3 stops
and arrive at Glynde at 11.18.

Get a return ticket to Seaford.

Once we arrive at Seaford the walk is officially over and some people
might want to avail of the always deep water at the admittedly stony
beach but that is outside the CLOG event.

The return from Seaford is via Brighton. Trains from Seaford to Brighton
are at 29 and 59 mins past the hour with a journey time of 35 mins.
Trains from Brighton are frequent with Southern or Thameslink.

The underground bit is about bunkers and wartime storage. We will be passing one of the remaining wartime vessels and a church which commemorates the RAF and allied air forces. Incidentally, there'll be stories about entertainment laid on for the forces.

Usual 3-4 mile length. We will finish in a pub.

This is a special place with wild meadows and ancient woods with storks nesting, and was featured on the BBC's Springwatch this year.

The plan is to travel on Friday afternoon/evening and pitch our tents at a campsite on the Knepp estate, where we can have a campfire. On Saturday we will do a local walk in the area. Checkout time is 10am on Sunday, so we may wander off home or potentially be able to leave packed-up tents on site in someone’s car.

This trip has opened for booking. See email for further details.
