Walk 16th February 2016 Young St - The Gallops via Leatherhead - Norbury Park


Start :- TQ151548
Distance 15.8 km; 9.82 miles
Time 3 hours 13 minutes
Route:-
Young St CP (Top) - Bocketts Farm - Hawks Hill - Downside Manor - Leatherhead Downs - Mill Way (Nower) - The Gallops -  Mickleham Downs - Mickleham Church - Sawmill - Crabtree Cottages - Bookham Wood - Admirals Road (Track) - The Hazels - CP

This is an extension of the walk completed on 11th February 2016, with plenty of scope to extend the walk to Headley and also to Boxhill. The path from Nower Wood back to White Downs is often muddy and so it was today. However the route overall is not too bad. There are areas which will display bluebells - this will include the path towards The Gallops.

The history around Whitehill / TheGallops extends back 3,000 years. (further information to be added)
