The ramble this month was 6.2 miles long, starting and ending at The Kings Head in Upton-St-Leonards.  The weather was perfect – sunny but not too hot.  We had to negotiate 16 stiles and 5 gates, and a long steep climb but the views from the top were magnificent if a little hazy.  Besides the village lanes, fields of yellow buttercups with cattle, sheep and horses, we also walked along woodland pathways in the Kites Hill Reserve.
