Aperfield Inn, South Street, Tatsfield


The  Lonesome Twosome go east!







Find: herd of deer
Walkers: FartyF & TB
Distance: 6 miles
Time: 3 1/4 hrs
(For a map of the walk please click here)
Having determined the pub did food all day the orphans set off at 11.25 (!) in a south westerly direction. Rolling hills, oddles of horses, sheep, but not many cows & not too much mud.
Joined the North Downs Way, turned east along 'millionaires row'.
Beautiful trees & leaf colour. Came out facing east and a magnificent view. it was hilly in parts and we decided to turn north walking through more woodlands. Some interesting fungi & woodpecker holes.
At Bombers farm chased by a horse while crossing a field. On speaking to the owner we heard she was an abused rescue horse with a large blister on her back. Good job we had our sticks! All was forgiven for her rearing up & frightening us. Further along spied a large herd of grazing deer in a valley. Thought they were being farmed. When they heard us they melted away into the woods. Turning west again made good progress back to the pub. Good food, reasonable prices, but somewhat slow service.

Next week, well tbc.....

Bye, Farty Fallover
