Sponsored Walk News - money raised so far!

Just to keep you all updated, we have so far raised just over £1500 from the 10 mile walk in January which is a tremendous effort! The work should be done before the beginning of the cricket season, so we'll all be able to gaze at it in wonderment.

There is still money trickling in, and you can still donate online at our Just Giving page.

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 CafĂ©”.
  • 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.
