{ Trains run regularly to Petts Wood station from Victoria, London Bridge, Waterloo East and Charing Cross}

We will be wandering through the Jubilee Country Park, Petts Wood, Black Brook, Farnborough Village and{ High Elms Country Park image below}, where we will be eating our sandwiches or using the cafeteria there. .

From there we will keep following the London Loop going via Holwood House {this is where William Pitt the younger lived.
