This section is completely blocked by 3 fallen trees, 8 foot high nettles and brambles. Took me 15 mins to hack through, avoid!

The views across to the North Downs and surrounding area are pretty good so I took in a few minutes before embarking on the descent.

Ightham Mote is a medieval moted manor house owned and managed by the National Trust. It was built almost 700 years ago and houses a collection of interesting objects and art. The property has gardens and a wider estate which you can visit if you wish. It's paid entry unless you are a NT member. There's also a cafe and shop on site which makes it a great place to either start a run or stop at halfway. If you're running here, the most obvious loop starts at Ightham Mote, Knole or Sevenoaks station and follows the Greensand Way. There are lots of other options within the 580-acre (235 ha) estate to explore if you fancy staying local.
