You will find football pitch and Cricket club along the route of the Greensand way. The cricket club was built in 1983 and is said to be one of the most picturesque club grounds. The pavilion was designed by William Narraway - a portrait artist. On the way to Holmbury hill you will also find views looking over to Leith Hill. Near the youth hostel there appears to be evidence of old field boundaries and again to be found in the area near to Peaslake house. Holmbury St Mary's church built in 1879 by George Edmund Street.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holmbury_St_Mary On this walk there are two pubs - one at Peaslake - Hurtwood Inn http://www.hurtwoodinn.com/ and at Holmbury St Mary - The Royal Oak
