Penshurst to Charcott

 

From Penshurst we go east via Hoath Hill and then north to Chiddingstone continuing to the hamlet of Charcott for lunch - about 6 miles and 240 feet of ascent.  Most of the climb is in a single easy ascent about a mile after the start.

After lunch, we head south with a stretch along a quiet lane before going into the Penshurst estate and back to Penshurst - about 3½ miles and 100 feet in ascent.  Most of the climb is up a short sharp bit in the estate.
