Haywards Heath to Uckfield
A station-to-station walkSussexSouth East England
An attractive route. An attractive route passing through hay meadows, cattle pastures, cereal fields and the wild heathland of Chailey Common, taking in pretty villages. Well traced on the map, but some sections have missing fingerposts and broken stiles and one stretch is very overgrown. Passes through the villages of Newick and Scaynes Hill, and across Chailey Common.
Lunch: Pubs and village stores in Newick and Scaynes Hill.
Warnings: The worst section, about 1.5 miles from Uckfield between the A22 roundabout and a disused railway embankment, is rarely used and very overgrown, wading through bracken, nettles and brambles. Some broken stiles and missing fingerposts; sat nav helps keep direction across Chailey Common.
