The last section of the Serpents Way was Rhododendrons and this section is heather - beautiful.

A light and airy wood within the Chiddingfold Forest Site of Special Scientific Interest. Wildlife and birds thrive here, among them Tawny owls, lesser spotted Woodpeckers and Nightingales. A public bridleway connects with the Sussex Border Path.

The glorious woodland of Durford Heath was actually heathland, as the name suggests, until 150 years ago and some patches of heather are still evident. Then it was planted with oaks and coppiced regularly to provide charcoal for the iron industry. This area is now managed by the National Trust which, to maintain a variety of wildlife, has provided glades, wide tracks and clearings. We can now enjoy some glorious, light and sunny, mixed woodland, including some of the best examples of sessile oak in the south-east.

Chapel Common is a gorgeous spot where you can see southern marsh-orchids, which thrive on the acidic soil, in the summer months. The warbling of the skylark is a common sound too during this time, as they ascend to the heavens. The ancient Roman road from Chichester to Silchester runs north westwards through the common.
