Burgess Hill to Uckfield
A station-to-station walkSussexSouth East England
Recommended: Really peaceful. A peaceful route mainly on field paths and woodland tracks through the Low Weald clay country of small fields, hedgerows and patches of woodland, with a short section of road walking. Actively farmed land with arable, mowed hay and recently ploughed fields; numerous stiles and gates and footbridges. Passes through Ditchling Common; occasional glimpses of the South Downs; the churches at Chailey and Newick have quiet benches in the churchyards; there is a memorial to Polish WW2 squadrons near Plumpton Green.
Woodland: a fifth under tree cover.
Lunch: Newick has several pubs, a bakery and a village shop a short diversion off the route.
Warnings: Fields containing cattle and sheep; numerous stiles, gates and footbridges to negotiate; one field is home to camels you must not walk through.
