Battle to Hastings...


We took the bus to Battle yesterday morning, £2.80 each, and got off the other side of Battle railway station, a lovely wee brick built building indeed, then we started to walk...


Walking into the countryside from Battle...


OK, it was pretty muddy for most of the walk (thankful we were wearing our wellies yesterday!), and some light snow, hailstones, mist and mizzle for much of the walk, shiver...


We walked along the 1066 Country Walk for most of the day, via Westfield, the nine miles to Icklesham, Oh look, there's half a dozen llamas in that field!


 Oops! They've seen us and are coming over, inquisitive creatures...


OK, you know you're in Kent or EAST Sussex when you see converted oast houses, and we saw plenty yesterday, obviously.


Don't hold back... dog owners beware!


Our Icklesham stopover for a pint and a sandwich, the Robin Hood (website). Then we walked the half dozen miles more back to Hastings, via Pett Village and Fairlight, and found a pub in which to watch the rugby, there's another story, but quite a full day!
