The source of Sensitive Knowledge lies in Essex (14 miles)

Hobbes is back in fashion. People hanker for a Leviathan. Better to be more careful what is wished for.

The only way is Essex😊 which your senses will tell you after this walk to one of the philosophical greatest of all time (and he's not Hobbes). Hidden in a rural Essex idyll, where else?

Along the way, the idyllic hamlet of Matching is the suitably named location for a Medieval marriage feasting hall, dating from AD 1480. Next to a Norman church. And after sandwiches on the village green at Matching Green is the Chequers Inn.

TRAVEL: Take the 10.28 train from LONDON LIVERPOOL STREET to HARLOW MILL. Walk starts 11.06 from Harlow Mill station where the organizer will meet the group. Circular walk. Buy an off peak day return to HARLOW MILL which is £13.15 with Groupsave or a Network card.

IMPORTANT

Please bear in mind this is a free of charge, self-guided trip with a hobby group. It is not organized by a business nor any entity with commercial purposes.

Any trip details, travel advice, route planning, instructions and other content in our group merely represent our shared personal knowledge, research and suggestions as outdoor enthusiasts. As this is no business, there is no "product", "service" or "package" and also no "tour guide", "operator" or "walk leader".

Each participant is responsible for their own safety. Even if some of us are very experienced walking outdoors, nobody assumes responsibility for any kind of injury, damage or loss that may happen.

Despite this, we take extreme precautions and all trips we plan are very safe, fun, highly educational and popular. Our experienced members volunteer their time and effort to shape a pleasant and quality adventure for everyone :-)

By participating you acknowledge and agree with this disclaimer.

TRAVEL, ACCOMMODATION, INSURANCE

Although we provide detailed suggestions, each participant is expected to arrange their own travel and (if required) accommodation - this gives everyone the freedom and choice to join from wherever they want and stay wherever they want. Anyone interested in travel or outdoor insurance should also arrange this on their own. As mentioned above we always take extreme precautions, but some people may still feel safer if covered.

We advise not to buy tickets until the day. People getting tickets from the same station are encouraged to meet early on the day to benefit from discounts such as GroupSave.
