Title - The Anniversary Waltz - The Lewes Pancake
Description - We opened the Strollers with this one, so I thought we ought to celebrate our anniversary with a ‘Retread’ of it. An easy, flat but longish walk taking in the Ouse, Rodmell, Iford then passing Kingston at a distance before returning to the start.
We start by walking along the river taking in the ‘lottery win property’ display, including a Grand Designs featured abode, before taking a turn into open countryside, passing picturesque villages & a windmill, then return to the relative bustle of Thomas Paine’s spiritual home for refreshment.

Our Ethos
We are an inclusive social hiking group with walkers of all abilities, fitness levels, and health statuses, whose walks are accessible by public transport.
We walk at an inclusive but moderate pace & like to stay together. Should we concertina, we will regather, allowing people to get their breath back before moving on, particularly on the climbs.
Please treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself.
There is ONE walk leader per walk to avoid confusion.
We run group walks, we start together, walk together, lunch together & finish together.
