#68 Rob's Hampshire Pub Walks (The Bramdean & Ropley Walk)

8 miles approximately, starting and finishing at The Fox Inn , Bramdean. Dog Friendly

Explore the beautiful Hampshire countryside between the villages of Bramdean and Ropley. Walking is a real pleasure with the well looked after rights of way and the far reaching views of the surrounding countryside with the distant sound of steam engines from the Watercress Line in the background.
There are secret places to discover in the woods, a twelfth century church and a host of very large and impressive houses as well as quaint cottages.
In this video I speak to a special guest and expert on Hampshire History. Join us as we pull on our walking boots once more to explore the chalk downland and visit this fabulous 16th century pub.
