WALKS

Walk 1: A circular walk around Headcorn Village

Headcorn is lucky in having many footpaths around the Village.  Here is a suggestion for a walk that starts and ends in the Village.  It's around 4km, although I didn't measure it precisely. There is a map of the walk here:

Start at the entrance to the Lenham Road Fields.  Cross three fields following footpath KH587.  Right at the end of this you can see this little bridge (you could choose to continue on KH336, but I took a left onto KH342A.

Continue ahead, crossing the Ulcombe Road when you reach it. This becomes footpath KH342.  A little further ahead you will see a disused barn on your right.  Slightly further on on your right you will see a small wooded area with bluebells (in April).  As you continue, take a sharp left onto footpath KH341.

Stay on this footpath, across fields, when it becomes footpath KH584.  Cross Tattlebury Lane and continue towards the A274.  Once there, turn left to return to the Village.

Walk 3: Circular route to Kelsham Farm and School House Farm

Something a little different. A longer walk of around 2.5 hours but all flat and taking in some interesting, quieter paths.

Walk 5: Village Circular Walk

Using new pathways near the Village hall, why not take this circular route around the village, taking in the open spaces.  It is predominantly flat but does include areas walking on grass (at Hoggs Bridge Green) and bark (near the Village Hall).
