Castle ruins, amazing views, and maybe some Meerkats
Details
This is a fairly gentle circular walk of around 5 miles, in and around Brockham and Betchworth (near Dorking).
There is adequate parking on the roads that criss-cross the Green at Brockham - RH3 7JS. Let's congregate at the charming, recently restored hand pump/well https://what3words.com/cars.lands.valve.
We'll head to the ruins of Betchworth Castle which has a fabulous vantage point over the river Mole. We'll then walk through all of Betchworth Park with views of Box Hill. We'll then turn left and head back towards Brockham on a different footpath that takes us through much farmland.
We finish back at Brockham Green - The Royal Oak offers a warm welcome and reasonably priced food.
Meetup fee £4 please. Preferably no dogs.
I look forward to seeing you on 1 February. If, in the meantime, you have any queries, please add them to this thread or contact me directly on 07596 090066.
Best wishes, Tim
