FRIDAY WALK: ARLINGTON-MICHELHAM CIRCULAR 6.5 MILES

*** NB: EARLIER START TIME ***

A new route for us recce’d by John P and I, this delightful walk takes us through peaceful countryside from Arlington Reservoir to Michelham Priory. It is fairly long (6.5 miles) but flat, with only a few stiles.

There will be a coffee stop midway at The Blue Door café in the Priory, plus an opportunity to enjoy more coffee & snacks at the reservoir café at the end of the walk.

Dogs are welcome and I walk with a friendly hound called Josie. On lead around the reservoir but off lead for most of the walk.

Please note because of the length of walk and wanting to avoid lunchtime at Michelham, I will be starting earlier than usual. Meet in the Arlington Reservoir carpark at 10am. Please arrive in good time for a prompt start.

There are various routes to the reservoir and probably the easiest for most people if to take the A27 to Drusillas roundabout then the road to Berwick Rail Station (3rd exit from Eastbourne; 1st exit from Lewes). Follow the road for about 1 mile, and the carpark is on your right c.400m after the level crossing. Satnav BN26 6TF. The car park charge is £2.50 per day.

Hopefully the weather will stay fine but if it's wet I will cancel the day before. If you are unable to attend on the day, please call or text me on 07764 677363 in case I can't access MeetUp.

Thanks Alison
