VISITS

Saturday 4th July

BHAS Winchelsea and Rye Daytrip

There will be an early start to the day, with the coach leaving Brighton at 8am for Winchelsea. A guide will meet us, and the group will be divided into two, one having a 90 minute tour with the other having free time, then the groups will change around. At approximately 1pm we will leave for Rye, where we will have lunch, and another guide will take us round the town during the afternoon for about 75 mins. There will be more free time in Rye, and the coach will leave at 5.30pm for Brighton.

The whole day will cost £25 (based on 35 people), and this amount includes the two fees for the guides. Closing date for bookings will be 22nd May. There are cafes in Rye, but it might be best to bring a packed lunch to save time during the day.

THE PICK-UP POINTS WILL BE
7.30am at Hove Town Hall
7.45am at YMCA Old Steine, Brighton
7.55am at the Black Lion Patcham

 

It is possible that due to the weather and other unforeseen circumstances dates and venues may have to change, if in doubt check with the web site.

Non BHAS members, if you wish to come on a walk, please confirm the date/start times by e-mailing walks@brightonarch.org.uk
