This route was recce'd on saturated ground on 8/2/26 after a wet January and early February and there were many muddy stretches, especially (but not limited to) the half-mile or so to the south of the gates on both sides of the island onto the Thorney defence establishment.
This walk may go ahead in August 2026 if it is dry and there is not a heatwave (as there is not much tree cover), or may be rescheduled to late Spring or Summer 2027.
