We walk towards Chislehurst and then stopping at some places of interest.  Back a slightly different way and stopping at two memorials in the Willett woods.  It will take about 2 hours and maybe a little muddy in places but not hilly.  Pat would like to do tea for the walkers at our house.  Sandwiches and cake.
