Length: Approx 5 miles
Time: Approx 3 hours but we added about 15 mins getting lost, just to the north of Sawmill on the map, and at least 15 mins getting around the flooded field at 5 on the map.
Ascent: +-59m
1. We have driven along this road to Wickham hundreds of times and have never noticed this sign. How unobservant! Parking is easy on the opposite of the road.
2. Looking back north over Wickham Common. A beautiful blue sky and yet a few minutes later, the rain came down.
3. Luckily the rain was shortlived and we were treated to this lovely rainbow. Shame about the power cables.
4. Even in this relatively small area between the B2177 and the M27 some of the fields seem huge.
5. The Wallington River had broken its bank. We didn't fancy having to go all the way back so we spent 15 mins at least trying to work our way around the flood without getting too wet. Despite having to wade through ankle deep water we finally managed it, still with dry feet. 10/10 for our new boots.
