Location: Just before entering the village of West Meon turn right at a P sign for Village Hall. Turn left into Headon View and right at the top into a large village hall car park

This walk goes through Hampshire’s best village (as voted once in The Times) and you won’t argue. This is an area of prehistory, with great bronze-age barrows of Beacon Hill, visited on the way, with high views of Old Winchester Hill and the Solent. Part of the route is along the dismantled Meon Valley Railway giving a very comfortable stretch.
