    So beautiful. I love to wander down paths through wooded areas. This summer, walking isn’t really working for me (temporary health issues 🤦) so your pictures meant more to me than ever. 💞

      Thanks so much for joining me on my walk. I wish you well.

    I’m going to google this place. I’d love to see (read “paint”) that bridge from about ten metres farther back.

      I’d love to see that painting! There are lots of bridge photos from the Cuckoo Trail on Google images. Thanks so much, Christine.

    I love the overgrown platform – sort of magical…

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings June 3, 2021 / 09:41

      Me too, I’m pleased they didn’t restore it. Thanks, Lydia.

    Spring and early summer is such a beautiful time to explore. When you have your camera and can take excellent photographs as you have even better.

    Thank you for hosting the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, Keith. 🙂

    This walk is a balm to the soul, and that bench is love.
    Verdant and did the cuckoos go calling?

    Thanks for hosting, adding you to my link party too, Keith. 🙂

      Thanks for your lovely comment, Natasha. No cuckoos though!

      • Natasha's avatar Natasha June 8, 2021 / 06:29

        Never mind, in another time I guess. Hope you are well. And enjoying the summers, whatever little you guys get.

    Hi Keith – your photos are gorgeous … true English early summer – and you got to Horam … or did you start there? Love that bench … such fun to see – also it looked pleasantly coolish there … cheers Hilary

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings June 3, 2021 / 10:17

      I always visit my friend’s pub near Heathfield for lunch on Tuesdays, so I parked at Horam on the way home!

      The bench is just one of many delightful creations along the trail. Last year I walked the entire 15-mile walk in one go – won’t be doing it again though!

      Off to Chartwell today!

    Oh what a delight all that lush green Gorgeous photos Quite a pleasure when everything is grey on this side of the world

    Looks like a jungle out there! We love that bench, what a creative idea it is!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings June 3, 2021 / 10:19

      It’s pretty wild in places! Yes, that bench is special. Thanks for dropping by.

    What a lovely walk- I would love to be there! Such lush greenery! And the clever use of the old train by using the wheels to make a bench!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings June 3, 2021 / 10:25

      It’s a 15-mile trail with lots of interesting pieces like that bench along the way. Thanks for virtually walking with me!

    Beautiful photos. I like the solitary half brown half green leaf amongst all the green in the fourth photo. It is nice that they have made a lot of the old rail lines into walking trails.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings June 3, 2021 / 10:45

      Funny you should mention that, I toyed with editing it out then changed my mind at the last minute!

      When I was a kid the track ran past the bottom of our garden – I can still hear the steam engines chugging by!

      • Jackie's Photo Blog.'s avatar Jackie's Photo Blog. June 3, 2021 / 23:13

        I am glad you didn’t. It caught my eye immediately.

    Lovely images, Keith. I imagine it was a soothing stroll. Very cool bench! 🙂

        You’re welcome, Keith! 🙂
