The Wealdway
The Wealdway
The Wealdway is a long distance path that runs from Gravesend, Kent on the Thames estuary, to the A259 at Eastbourne, in East Sussex. The Wealdway was conceived in 1970 by members of the Ramblers' Association as a route through the Kentish and Sussex Weald, providing a link between the routes north of the Thames and the start of the South Downs Way. It would also provide a return circuit for users of the Saxon Shore Way. Motorway construction work and the building of the Tonbridge Flood Relief Barrier forced many changes to the original route.

It is marked by double yellow 'W's along the route - see TQ6561 : Crossover in Long Distance pathways.
