ビショップスサットンでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

This was an astonishing find. It's very well cared for & is surrounded by plenty of seating.

Great Walk

Nice walk or ride along past cress beds ( or what used to be cress beds) Over or through a ford with crystal clear water where I used to play as a child when visiting my Nan

Great view with dinning. The pub has excellent food and even fabric napkins in the garden!

Well worth planning your visit around some activity on the timetable. It's great to watch the steam trains going in and out of the station

You can enjoy a train ride along the line

The Church in the Wood The church is situated in a wood on Bramdean common. It is maintained by the three trustees of the charity of Louisa Francis Katherine Bishop for Divine service. Mrs Bishop was the widow of the Rev Bishop who caused the church to be built here in 1883. When she died in 1893 she gave instructions to her trustees by a codicil to her will, in which she left £2000. They were to pay the vicar of Bramdean to take services, to maintain the church, and to ring the bell. The latter they do, beginning 15 minutes before each service, to guide the congregation through the wood. Evensong is celebrated on the second and fourth Sundays of each month from May to September at 3pm, with a carol service on the second Sunday in December. Baptisms and wedding blessings, sometimes of gypsies, take place quite frequently. The church has no parish and no funds apart from those donated by the congregation or well-wishers. Recently attendance has averaged 17 at evensong with greater numbers coming to open air services. Access is on foot by mud track. Park your car on Bramdean common, and listen for the bell! Lighting by candles, Music by harmonium. Dogs, horses and wellington boots welcome. https://upperitchenbenefice.org.uk/church-in-the-wood/
