Dorking to Westhumble
18 January 2014
10 people
29 km (19 miles)
Flooded fields surround us in cold rain
The river Mole had burst its muddy banks
We wade across waterlogged pastures green
The rain stops and the cold sun shines.
Gloomy forests surround our uphill climb
Broken telegraph poles scattered in a pile
We meet another walker halfway to the top
In Coldharbour's cosy pub we eat and drink.
At the Tower we head towards a distant spire
Pass Wotton's rustic chapel in its field
The North Downs ridge and Dorking's lights
Refresh ourselves in the Stepping Stones at dusk.
