Meet at 1.15 at Chyngton Gardens, Seaford

at the bus-stop located approximately 50m north of its junction with the A259. The bus stop name is “Chyngton Gardens – towards Brighton”. [NB Google Maps incorrectly names this stop as “Walmer Road”]. On-street parking is normally available on Chyngton Avenue or Saltwood Road. Alternatively, use Brighton Buses route 12 or 12X from Eastbourne or Seaford.

We will take bus 126 to Alfriston, where those that wish can partake of a pub lunch at “Ye Olde Smugglers Inne”. Their food is excellent with main courses typically £15. Roy Sutton will be circulating menus and taking orders before 25^th August to ensure that we will be served promptly on what will be one of their busiest days. For those not eating, Alfriston is an attractive village with lots of small shops.

We depart Alfriston at 2.45 and walk to Exceat Bridge, roughly four miles, level and good going. Arrive Exceat Bridge around 4.15 for optional tea at the ‘Cuckmere Inn’. Then, options are…

1. Walk to Cuckmere Haven and back to Chyngton Gardens (2.5 miles)
2. Catch a bus back to Chyngton Gardens or Seaford along the A259
3. Walk directly back to Chygnton Gardens (1 mile).

The walk will be at your own pace, with directions being given.

There is no charge for the walk. Participants pay for their own bus fares, food and drink.
