4¼miles - allow 2¼ hours
Orchards and modern fruit farms are a feature of this section
of the walk, as you pass Downingbury and Pippins farms in
Pembury, both have farm shops selling a variety of local fruit
and produce. Another worthwhile detour on this section of
the walk is the Pembury heathland, opposite the pumping station.
This site is managed by the RSPB where areas once planted
with conifers are being returned to heathland. A 3 mile circular
walk has been set up around this site. This section then passes
the edge of Pembury village and across the A21 to Little Bayhall.
Main highlights of this section include:
- St Peter's Church, Pembury
- Dowingbury and Pippins Fruit Farms
- Site of Keyes Mill, Snipe Wood
- Pembury Village
- Old Coach Road Bayhall
