Footpath through Ballards Gore Golf Club Footpath  through golf course north towards Canewdon. When I was a lad, this area was an abandoned gravel working with spoil tips, old machinery, rough scrub and flooded pits with tench the size of nuclear submarines. It's gone sadly downhill over the last 40 years.

Stile west of Loftmans Farm The footpath runs south from here to West Hall. But it's been over-sown with wheat and wheat's about all there is in this square. The blue thing on top of the stile is a length of plastic water pipe in which the electric fence wire runs, a gesture by a considerate farmer to prevent electrocution of ramblers. Shame about the over-sowing though.
