Walk away from the High Street past the butcher and fork right at Priory Lane. After crossing the River Deben, turn right at the road and, after 100yds (91m), turn left on a sloping cross-field path. Pass through a hedge and continue around the edge of a field before turning left along a country lane.

At a junction of bridleways, ignore the ‘Heart of Suffolk Horse Route’ signs and keep straight ahead on the oak-lined drive to Crows Hall, which takes its name from the Debenham family crest. Follow the waymarks around to the right of the farm, past a dressage arena and walk ahead on a field-edge path between a fence and a hedge. Go left again at the end of the field and stay on this path as it crosses a footbridge to the right around the Great Wood. After another 250yds (229m), turn left across the fields to come to a wide track signposted 'Bridleway'. Turn right here and turn right along a lane to pass the large farm buildings of Grove Farm, then Crowborough Farm.

At the start of a line of telegraph poles, turn left alongside the hedge on to a grassy path. Stay on this path for 0.5 mile (800m), passing a wind pump and a pair of water towers before descending to a cottage with wooden barns.

Turn left then immediately left again along a field-edge path – this is Waddlegoose Lane. You will be on this green lane for the next 1.75 miles (2.8km). Ignore all paths off until you come to a T-junction on the bend of a path with a signpost showing bridleways in three directions. Bear right here. The path is now enclosed by trees, obscuring your view of the fields.

At the next junction, turn right along a farm track and stay on this track past a converted barn and a brick farmhouse. Turn left along the road for about 400yds (366m), then turn right on to a bridle path signposted 'Circular Walk'. After passing through an arch in the hedge, the path follows the right-hand side of Hoggs Kiss Wood, one of 200 community woodlands created to celebrate the millennium, with allotments to the right. You can either stay on the path or walk down through the woods and meadows. 

When you reach the end of Hoggs Kiss Wood, turn right around the allotments and fork right along Water Lane to reach the High Street. Turn left along the High Street to return to the start of the walk.
