The Four Deans
A walk ‘inside’ the four Deans - (Rotters, Roeders, Overs & Wooders), taking in some far reaching views including Brighton and a number of its satellite villages.
We will meet at Daisy’s Pantry in Rottingdean and, passing the Windmill, make our way to the rear of Blind Veterans, before dropping to the edge of Ovingdean. From there it’s uphill, passing behind Roedean School before continuing upwards, passing both the golf and race courses. At Woodingdean we drop down through the Cemetery and onwards back down to Rottingdean. We will arrive back at the beach for some well earned Christmas cheer!
