Cadmore End and Fingest circular: full route

Walk past the village hall and church, then turn right. Follow the track beside the gate, passing a shady pond with a wooden seat to a path junction.

Keep left, walk down a stony track and take the right hand path into woodland. Follow this
to a wooden notice board showing the history of the woodland and the work involved in maintaining it. Keep on this path which soon goes downhill emerging on to open fields with a lovely view towards
Skirmett. There is a convenient bench to admire it! Walk downhill, go over a stile and turn right to a lane in the village of Fingest.

Turn left along the lane and turn right through a gate into the church yard. On the right,
just beyond the 2 benches there is a small brick paved area with a sundial which makes a good coffee
stop. Foolow the path past the church and go through the gate into the lane. Turn right along the grass verge and, almost immediately, bear right through a gateway to a track between a flint wall and high hedges to a path junction.

Take the footpath immediately right which skirts Fingest Manor. This is a pretty path with
views across to Hanger Wood. At the end of the path, go right through woods towards Gravesend to a path junction just before a lane.

Turn immediately left along the bridleway which soon comes out into open fields. Follow
this path for 800m to a stony track on the right that leads towards Harecramp Cottages.

Take the track and, just before the Cottages, go right over a stile in the hedge. Cross an
open meadow and go over the next stile into a lane. Cross the lane to the footpath immediately opposite. Follow this path steady uphill through woodland and along to meet the grassy track at Waypoint 1. Turn left past the shady pond to return to the parking place just past the church.
