This walk will start at Shoreham station, Kent and finish at Otford station.
It will be a hilly walk of about 9.5 miles, 15 km, across varied
terrain, with woods, hills, hidden valleys and sudden views and includes
part of the North Downs Way.
This is one of my favourite walks near London. Its a popular area for
walking.
There will be an early pub stop at:-
The Gamecock, London Rd, West Kingsdown. Phone: 01474 852240. TN15 6EL
On Sundays, they serve very reasonably priced bar snacks such as
sandwiches and Shepherds Pie.
No doubt they have a few beverages to wet your whistle too .
I'm intending to eat there, but you can bring a packed lunch, and come
into the pub later to have a drink and warm up.
Its about 7 km+ (4.5 miles) to the pub and about 8 km (5 miles) after.
TRAVEL:-
Catch the 09:42 from London BLACKFRIARS to SHOREHAM (KENT).
Alternatively, you can
catch the 09:42 from VICTORIA changing at BROMLEY SOUTH (10:14) onto
the Blackfriars' train.
The walk will start when the train arrives at SHOREHAM (10:34).
NOTE: There are 2 Shoreham Stations:-
SHOREHAM, KENT where CLOG will be walking and
Shoreham-by-Sea, DON'T go here, you will be walking alone!
If driving, there is free parking along the minor road next to Shoreham
station.
Please get to Shoreham in plenty of time, eg 10:15.
I will meet you at Shoreham station.
RETURN TRAINS from OTFORD to Blackfriars xx:06 and xx:36.
These also stop at Shoreham.
There are some steep slopes, and it can get muddy after rain.
Lets hope for some dry weather.
Looking forward to seeing some keen walkers at Shoreham,
