Waterlevels Walk

Saturday 16 May, 10am-1.30pm

Meet at The Mint House, Pevensey

Join Charlotte Still and Clare Whistler (Watercycle) on a walk exploring the water levels around Pevensey – past, present and future – with storyteller Annalie Seaman and nature-friendly organic farmer Martin Hole, chair of the NFU.

As we walk, our speakers will share stories about the Pevensey Levels and their archeological history, farming on the Levels, re-wilding, power sources, and flooding. Always curious, our speakers welcome questions and contributions from members of the group.

We’ll be looking out for wild orchids in bloom and enjoying poetry written on the same walk by five eco poets, published in Wetland Eco-Body. On the way back to Mint House there will be the chance to rest and recaffeinate at Chilley Farm cafe.

This walk is focussed on inland waterways and landscapes; another on July 3rd will concentrate on the coast.

Practicalities

We’ll meet and finish at The Mint House in Pevensey. The walk is about 4.5 miles in total.
Please wear appropriate clothing and boots, and expect some stiles!
Sorry no dogs.
