County Ground to County Ground Walk - The Route! 22.1.2011

At least this is the walk Lutters will be doing, and he’s leading the pack!
Feel free to walk a longer route, especially if you are being sponsored per mile, but make sure either you are an adult or you are accompanied by one.

  • Start at Sussex County Cricket Ground – Eaton Road, Hove.
  • Head south on Selbourne Road, cross at the zebra crossing on to First Avenue, then cross at the traffic lights on the A259.
  • Head west along the seafront past Hove lagoon.
  • There is a road that goes on the sea side of Shoreham harbour called Basin Road South, head west along there until you reach “Carats Café”.
  • At this point you will need to cross over the water on the locks – they are signposted.
  • Once north of the harbour, head west along the A259 (there’s no other route I’m afraid). There are a couple of places where the pavement is quite narrow, so take care.
  • As you enter Shoreham High Street, cross over the River Adur on the footbridge – opposite the Ferry Public House.
  • On the south side of the river, turn right and head up to the seafront on the first road, called Ferry Road.
  • Head west along the South Coast Cycle Path (Beach Road) – this will take you all the way the Worthing.
  • When you reach what was formerly the Half Brick Pub (on the kink in the road), cross at the traffic lights.
  • Head north on Ham Road, crossing at the traffic lights on the junction with Lyndhurst Road.
  • Keep heading north, past the entrance to the industrial estate.
  • At Sheridan Road turn left and follow it round to Beaumont Road, turn left and then right into Georgia Avenue and the end!
Hooray!

Enjoy a drink and something to eat in the pavilion (Worthing Hockey Club are kindly donating bar profits from the day). There should be a copy of the plans to see as well.
