Just 5 of us set off through the beautiful Houghton forest on this walk, which was from the Mid Sussex Ramblers' program of walks - see www.midsussexramblers.co.uk
I was the leader, deputising for Alison, who had selected this lovely walk. She had unfortunately recently broken her wrist and was unable to lead it.![](//3.bp.blogspot.com/_cJFLOZqVc2c/SQRUEuBK1eI/AAAAAAAACeA/Hiy3Hn9qTx0/s400/P1030846.JPG)
Here the path crosses the Roman road Stane Street and into the National Trust's Slindon Estate.
