The Barcombe Cross and Mills Walk takes you on a beautiful journey in the English countryside that showcases views along the River Ouse. Beginning Barcombe Cross High Street, follow the path and maneuver stiles, gates and footbridges and fields until you reach Anchor Lane.

Take in the views of Barcombe Mills, and the old toll houses and after navigating quite a few more stiles, gates and footbridges, you will come to Culver Farm Road. Wander through the farmers’ fields, following the path, and you will arrive at Barcombe Church. Take a moment to explore this area and then continue along the path, and you will reach the car park where you began as this is a circular path.
