Hale Purlieu, near Godshill

Hale Purlieu, near Godshill. 1 to 2 hours. Circular. Beautiful walk. Starting from Deadman's hill car park, walk down to Miller's ford turn right and head up through the pines on the top of the hill. At the end of Millersford plantation turn left and head down to a junction, turn a little way right then take the path under the wires and pass the horse pens. Shortly you will come to a NT post on open common land, this is Hale Purlieu. Walk across the heatherland to a ford then turn left on another wide track down to woodland. Turn left into the woodland. Pass through the woods to reach gate posts. Now turn right and head back up the hill to the car park. This is a very lovely area, with amazing views and very peaceful.
