Hi there, I've created a website of eight walks within 40 minutes' drive (or train journey from Nunhead), of East Dulwich. They are mainly in the Shoreham (Kent) area. Hope it's useful for those who don't know the beautiful nearby countryside too well. It's at https://localkentwalks.wordpress.com/

I enclose a picture taken from one of the walks last month

There are quite a few books with titles like "Country walks near London" and "Walks in the Country Near London", plus there are also walks within London which are almost like being in the country, eg along the Thames between Richmond and Kew.


Also Sydenham Hill Woods, just up the road, though they're getting quite crowded these days :)

Is there any chance of including the link to this blog of 'locally accessible' walks mainly in Kent (link in OPs original post) in the 'blog' section of local info? - although the walks aren't precisely local they are put together to be accessible for those of us who live locally and seem to have been well done. Although those of us reading the post now can bookmark the link, I believe it is of genuine value to those coming late® to these threads.

Thanks for your comments everyone. I hope you enjoy the walks and avoid getting lost, and, if you're using the train, they aren't all cancelled? There are also some muddy bits too at the moment, but it's all good really! Here's a couple of pix from the walks that might whet your appetite...

    • You have all the information you need to appeal, I expect you have a receipt for the items and can demonstrate that they were heavy.
    • My partner parked in a loading bay in Orpheus Street SE5 to get some heavy items from Cowling & Wilcox Art Supplies for his business. The whole transaction took less than 5 minutes. He came back, loaded and left - with a fine for parking in a loading bay “without loading within 2 minutes”!!  He made an online appeal but it was turned down- letter attached.   I think the main points he contested are;   You can’t walk to C&W, pick up a box and walk back in 2 minutes, so how can ‘evidence of loading be seen’ in that time? They were not ‘general domestic shopping.’ They were bulky and heavy. The vehicle was moved immediately on returning to it with the goods. So, he met ALL the criteria they have stipulated as reasons for issuing the PCN. If anyone has successfully or unsuccessfully  appealed against a similar loading bay fine do let me know, thanks! 
    • JoJo is turning into, a…. Charity shop! I asked in there this morning. 
    • Does it all come down to this, sex? Live your life as you want to enjoy it, because none of us know what the next curved ball life is going to throw at us, here one minute and quite literally, gone the next. It can and does happen everyday. Enjoy life to the MAX.
