This is a lovely route in all seasons through the ever changing woods of Burton and Chingford Ponds Local Nature Reserve which is managed by the Sussex Wildlife Trust. The ponds were built in the 16th century to support the local iron industry.

This trail is part of a collection of 14 countryside walks produced by West Sussex County Council. The walks are for the enjoyment of all, including wheelchair users, families with pushchairs, those wanting a gentler walk and walkers who are less mobile.
