Viewpoints

There are several good viewpoints along the southern edge of the Dyke, as the GF crosses Summer Down.

This one caught the eye, but the poor light rather flattened colours and the perspective that was so striking as GF peered across the entrance to the Dyke across North Hill towards Newtimber Hill.

It was along this stretch that GF caught up with a family who, judging by their accents, came from eastern Europe. It was nice to see them enjoying the countryside of their new home, but stangely disconcerting to see how much fun they had when they came to a gate and a stile. The pharse that came to mind was "Get over it".
