Leeds Castle, King's Wood and Broomfield

Leaving the churchyard in Leeds village, we soon enter the Leeds Castle estate where we cross open farmland with glimpses of the Castle and the Great Water. We continue along farm tracks, fields and woodland paths through King’s Wood and on to St Margaret’s Church in rural Broomfield. Our return through the Leeds Castle estate brings us alongside the banks of the River Len and close to the moated Castle.

The first half of this walk is a gentle ascent; there are two stiles and short sections of wet mud are likely in Winter and Spring.

Nibble break part way through the walk (bring own refreshments).

A shorter 2.5 mile route is available to include the same views of Leeds Castle. Please contact the walk leader in advance if you want to do the shorter walk so that we can make a second leader available.

Outside drinks (covered and heated) after the walk at The George Inn, Lower St, Leeds ME17 1RN. To book lunch in the pub restaurant, please call 01622 861314 and ask to be seated with Tonbridge & Malling Ramblers.
