The Green Crescent

Part of Burgess Hill's attempt to provide public access to green areas on the edge of town. The crescent runs from Bedelands Farm nature reserve in the north then follows the western border of the town to Batchelors Farm nature reserve in the south. The access includes bridleways, footpaths and open access land. Here the bridleway drops to the left to ford Pook Bourne whilst the footpath runs over it to the right. Beyond is Jane Murray Way, the A273, a bypass built in the late 1990s, followed by the western edge of the town itself. The scheme was set up around 2003 and implemented over the past couple of years, the bridleway surface was laid in November.
