Very good. Brought back memories of going up to St Marthas. Must dig out my photos and have a look. I was planning on seeing the mills, but didn't make it. Now i know what i missed.

Hi your walks are very interesting

Thanks again amib, an enjoyable vicarious walk in an area I thought I knew well only to discover something new. Will be in that area myself again next week walking the Wey-South Path.

Thank you once again amib. In my northern ignorance I have sometimes written off Surrey as just endless suburbia, but your videos have shown me there is still much loveliness there. Let's hope that continues, as some of those views are wonderful. Though the sterility of the countryside becomes ever more disturbing; I honestly cannot remember seeing a butterfly so far this season. And what a poignant plaque at 16.20. Thank you so much

Another good walk with thoughtful commentary. Have walked in this area a few times but St. Peter’s has always been closed. Appreciated your long look around. I believe it was built in the site of, and used stones from, the Roman fort there. BTW the extension you chose not to do has some challenging navigation. Am sorry to hear about the reduced bus service. I use the very infrequent service from Maldon. The walk to Burnham on Crouch is apparently the most remote section of coast in the country!

Thank you again amib. There were certainly some fierce contrasts on this walk; from that wonderful, evocative chapel and the melancholic estuarine scenery to the caravan park and wind farm horrors. (Not great news on the latter front today concerning on shore turbines). I wonder what the future has in store for the nuclear power station ? Anyway, a fascinating walk. Thank you as always

This was an interesting and different walk, I have been all round Southminster and Bradwell ( inc the chapel) in my younger years. I grow common mallow in my garden as it is so pretty. I think the Dengie Peninsula is quite overlooked as a pretty and peaceful place to visit. That Roman road you followed from the chapel is said to be haunted by sounds of Marching Feet ( Roman soldiers perhaps!)

I've said it before mate,and I'll say it again, don't change how you do these vids and your narration,it's perfect :0] Sth Londoner following from Edmonton Canada

Thank you once again amib for a very pleasant walk. Agree wholeheartedly with the comment below and your reply concerning the desecration of our verges. Their treatment this year up here in West Yorkshire has been a real mixed bag; am not sure as to whether local authorities or their sub-contractors are the chief culprit for the worst examples. Anyway, thank you as always

Pleasant walk and video, as usual. Even where flowers are present, insects are decidely sparse this year so far. Umbellifer roundels, ragwort and others usually abuzz with all sorts of insects, are almost silent, all due to the prolonged cold, wet spring we've had. In contrast to the verges and greens on your walk, our suburban street verges were left uncut until mid-June, part of the no-mow May policy; but the verges concerned were never sown with wildflower mix, so all we got was rank grass!

What an amazing tree. My nearest amazing tree is Old Knobbley , a much loved 800 year old English Oak Tree growing in Mistley, Essex. With a trunk circumference of about 9.5m and just 4.3m high, Its 800 years old

Thanks again for this lovely walk which is partly coincident with the Old Way pilgrimage route which we talked about last week. It’s nice to see the scallop shell motif, traditionally used for pilgrimage routes, being used here.

Thank you once again amib. I especially enjoyed this one; I spent many childhood holidays in Eastbourne and grew very fond of the Alfriston/Wilmington/Cuckmere Valley area. Age and infirmity mean I will never see these places again but thanks to your wonderful film I can have a poignant reminder. What a great selection of churches ! Thanks as always

Thanks again. Have just completed the Oxfordshire Way with the final section heading off over the Chilterns to Henley on Thames. I agree there is an element of a ‘picture perfect’ land management style but the walk does afford some uplighting views.

Thank you again amib. Agree wholeheartedly with your comments throughout this walk and also those concerning the Chilterns; this is one area of the south east I know fairly well and it tends to come across as very manicured, beech woods apart. Highlight for me was Little Missenden church. Those wall paintings looked an amazing insight into a lost medieval world. Thank you so much

hard to get decent walking weather lately

The small birds are Stonechats I think.

Nice n Sleazy Stranglers reference Something Better Change. Hopefully Reform can change something. Interesting walk

Thank you once again amib. Lovely downland views and of course Arundel is very picturesque. You have been very lucky with the cuckoos, so pleased to hear that wonderful call ! And a very happy birthday to you ! Thanks as always

Happy Birthday, what a lovely way to celebrate. Was on the Oxfordshire Way last week but had to come off the route because of impassable mud and flooding. Still very wet in the area. Mainly good walking and some stunning views and scenery. 🎂

Happy 62nd! 🎉

...and continuing this lovely walk here...

Let me just nurture Morton's neuroma and a beer in a glass and enjoy one of my top5 favourite youtube & real life walks.

Wow, i havent seen that air raid shelter for years, used to play in Rolls wood as a kid, further up at moneyhole lane playing fields there was a dummy airfield and factory builtto mimic the De Havilland Factories in Hatfield. They used to use the concrete roads before Pangshanger was built, sure it would not be till 60s it would be built

Hoy amib...greeting from Flanders...yes without a car...and public transport..!!????🤐🤔 and don't worry ..just like your 1080p film....!

Thank you once again amib for a lovely walk. I think along with many others who aren't too familiar with the south east, I tend to overlook the North Downs in favour of the more obviously scenic South Downs. More fool me, because they looked delightful here. The cuckoo call accompanied by those glorious views of Chilham Castle was a wonderful reminder that at least some of England's unique loveliness still remains, even now. Thank you so much

Hi great vid! I live in markyate, you have just done my weekend dog walk lol. You walk up past my house at the start of the video. glad you enjoyed my beautiful neck of the woods.

Beautiful countryside.

I'm amazed that people aren't placing their"likes" for the video which is very detailed and useful. So much work, yet no single gesture of gratitude, apart from my "like". Sad, really.

Thank you once again amib. You are right, the fenland landscape is so different from my Pennines ; though it does seem to possess an other worldly beauty, very intriguing. Loved the birdsong and congratulations on the cuckoo ! Apparently the distant views of Ely Cathedral, the " ship of the fens ", can be tremendous. Maybe next time you are in the area. Thank you as always

Nice and peaceful. I was in Beccles that day and it rained pretty much all day so you definitely did well to miss it, Thats definitely a chinese water deer as they have those huge ears

Nice walk,a good test for your new boots with that mud and water,Nice.lots of bird song,A5 could be a bit tricky at times.Great video.

Thanks again, another interesting walk and video. Have just returned from a few days on the North Downs way where it is almost completely dry and carpeted with bluebells and other wild flowers; so it seems different to the Aylesbury Vale landscape. I do enjoy your ‘tell it like it is’ commentary style. Let’s hope the walking season has properly begun without more bad weather and train strikes.

That is the Chappel Viaduct in the painting but it’s not an accurate image, it was something that was commissioned in the 90s by the rail users group at the time which includes features of all locations on the route.

Thank you again amib. Loved those woodlands, heathland landscapes and the birdsong; redolent of Surrey or Dorset. And thank you for illustrating the new build blight as well; this is why your walks are the most interesting on UA-cam. I want to see England as it is, not another sanitised National Park jaunt. Wonderful stuff, thank you as always

It feels strange to see you by the canal as I've seen this so many times on the narrowboat channels I follow.

Lovely walk, nice to walk along the towpath very enjoyable.Shame about arsenal result.

Pleased you’ve been able to get out again. Hope weather and strike situation improves soon so we can all get out regularly. New camera is great and noticed that the audio is also better. Thanks

Thank you again amib for a lovely walk in an area I don't know at all. I have always found rural towpath walks to be very soothing and restful and this was no exception. Lovely church thrown in as well. Do hope the weather improves so you can enjoy what is left of bluebell season. Thanks again

I do so love your walks. Thank you so much.

My home town. I have walked over 10.000 miles in 7 years in the area.

Really enjoyed following you on this walk, interesting commentary & pointing out places of interest. Visiting Holnicote house later this year so might attempt this walk!

I know the people at Saltwood Castle, yeh its a private residence, they do have car shows etc though thru the summer

Excellent walk and commentary in one of my favourite areas, you were lucky with the weather and I now feel ready for spring with your bird sightings, you just need the new boots …..

Another great walk, thanks very much.Shame about all that boggy mud walking with your leaky boots, hopefully you get that sorted.

Thank you so much amib..... and well done for negotiating those tricky sections ! But what a fascinating walk, dripping with history and surely one of your best ! A tantalising glimpse of spring and those views from Lympne looked stunning. What a place, that church tower looked more forbidding than the castle ! By the way, think Saltwood Castle was the home of Alan Clark, the controversial Tory MP and diarist. Thank you so much, really enjoyed this
