Travel: Take 9:15 London Charing Cross (9:24 London Bridge), arr. Battle 10:33.
Buy a return to Pevensey and Westham (I would advise to return to London via Hastings and thereby keep to the Southeastern train network as your ticket may not be valid on Southern trains via Eastbourne all the way back to London).
Grading: Strenuous.
For an explanation of the gradings, please see the FAQ - please consider both the length and grade when choosing a walk.
Finish point: Pevensey and Westham Station
