The house to the left is Pound House. Built in the early 19th century of red brick with ashlar dressings under a slate roof. The parallel rear range has an ironstone rubble rear wall. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1033896 To the right is the former school. Established in 1843, it became a British School in 1862 and moved to this building in 1878. The building was enlarged in 1901 and the school became a County School in 1907. The school closed in 1984. From the car park in front of the Greyhound public house, the route leads through fields and along Highfield to cross the A342 road. The next path leads past Bromham House Farm to Turnpike Farm and on to Wick Farm. Then paths through fields to Chittoe Heath and along minor roads to Nonsuch Nurseries. Another path through fields leads to a surfaced path at the edge of Wyatt’s Wood, this leads to the High Street and back to the starting point. Almost exactly 4 miles.
