Another decent walk through the Low Weald, with this one being 10.6 miles through Surrey's Mole Valley, undertaken on a breezy afternoon with sunny intervals. It's done in reverse, using the GPX track, for logistical reasons, so the walker starts through Priory Park to join the Greensand Way and then passes through classic Wealden countryside for lunch in the attractive village of Leigh. This was had in the churchyard of the unusual St Bartholomew's church, though a pub option is very close by. More of the same after lunch, with a field of Marl apparently (not slurry as mentioned on commentary) seen improving the soil quality. A decent enough walk with good surfaces, but there are some short sections of relatively busy road walking. There's also potential for encounters with cattle that might necessitate diversions! Unsure if the Buzzard near Hammond's Copse was a Common one, or a rare Rough-Legged since it appears to have feathered legs?
