Good Walks


Itzel

Recommended Posts

Am planning on doing a walk with the family this weekend.


Will be with a baby/buggy and plan to go to Crystal Palace via Cox's walk, off the Sth Circular.


Probably stopping at the Woodhouse or Westow House for food / booze, then back via College Road, into the Village.


Planning on doing about 6 miles.....


Has anyone done this walk, or one similar, will Cox's walk be suitable for the buggy..........

Idea on other pubs to stop in? Other routes?

Any tips?

Cox's walk should be fine for a buggy at the moment - was there this morning and it's nice and dry. You might have to lift over a couple of places but generally fine. Just make sure you take the left turn towards Sydenham Hill rather than go through the gate into Sydenham Hill Woods, which would be hard work with a buggy.

It's a smooth gravelled path up to the entrance to Sydenham Hill Woods, where you turn left over the railway bridge and up another reasonable path to Sydenham Hill. Perfectly doable I'd say when it's as dry as now - you can look at each end of the path from Streetview or online. We pass plenty of buggies when we walk that way and nobody seems to be having much trouble.

    • I wouldn't recommend Forest Hill if you have a child in one of the Dulwich private schools and you intend to cycle. ..that hill is very steep. In my opinion the ideal locations would be around Court Lane/near library - I used to cycle across Dulwich Park with my little one to go to one of these schools - when I used to live there. Houses might be on the smaller side. around North Dulwich/Herne Hill great transport link to the City and you are also close to Brockwell Park  or West Dulwich (not the most exciting area but very quiet and very convenient for DP, pre Prep and DC.)  Nice houses as well.  
    • I was born in my Nan's house on Belvoir Road in February 1995 and I lived with my mum and also my younger sister at 185 Ladlands, Overhill Road. I went to nursery and then school at Goodrich Community Primary School and remember the following staff members - Miss Hunter, Mr Coleman & Mr Johnson. A few pupils I remember are - Tanya, Flo, Lauren, Lucy, Arcadeus (not 100% sure of spelling). I moved to Bromley in the early 00s.
    • My mum used to go to a Caribbean shop in Sydenham in the 90s but can't remember the name of the shop. The man's name was Roger. Any ideas?   TIA
    • I look out for them tomorrow over Horniman Gardens.  Separately our garden has been invaded by large birds, magpies, a jay or two, starlings, a couple of wood pigeons and less great and blue tits than usual, virtually no long tailed tits and only the occasional dunnock.  No blue tit nesting this year either..... Here's a lovely picture when the common redpolls visited a few weeks ago, feeding on sunflower chips with the goldfinches.  Note the home made anti-parakeet cage (from a squirrel proof feeder)
