Find out the fascinating history of Purdown, including the gun emplacements, the story of Purdown Percy, Heath House and Sir Johns Lane.

Led by Steve England, this fascinating History of Purdown walk will take us to the monuments along the Purdown ridge where we will find out about the WW2 gun emplacements and the history of the Heath House Estate. We will find the hidden features and learn about the area through the ages until the present day.

Up to 2 hours of walking across Purdown involved. Please bring drinks, snacks and wear appropriate clothing and footwear.

Additional Information – Please Read before Booking

Ticket price + Booking Fee

Ticket prices shown INCLUDE EVENTBRITE BOOKING FEE (£0.49 + 6.5% per ticket), which has slightly increased due to additional details needing to be collected for the NHS Test and Trace system.

This event is aimed at those over 12 years old. For children under this age, we recommend finding one of our Family based events, which includes family tickets.

Cancellation/Postponing due to Poor Weather

SE Outdoor Learning events take place outdoors, and therefore unfortunately we may need to be postponed or cancelled in the days leading up to the event if it seems that the weather will be too poor for it to be run safely. We will always aim to confirm cancellation of the event 24 – 48 hours in advance (though on very rare occassions, sudden weather changes may mean its closer than this). Please keep an eye on your emails and Facebook for information regarding this. If you cannot make the postponed date, please request a refund and we will be able to issue this for you asap.

COVID UPDATES

As with other organisations and businesses, SEOL is taking a number of precautions to help keep you and us safe ,and are doing what we can to ensure we can now once again begin running walks and tours in a safe, comfortable and enjoyable way.

If an event is cancelled due to Government requirements, all tickets will be refunded in full.

We ask you to please read through the following points before booking and help us all by following these guidelines and making sensible efforts to stay safe before, throughout and after the event. When booking tickets, you agree to following these guidelines.

  • We will share contact details if requested with NHS Test and Trace. Contact information is stored securely within the Eventbrite booking system. If you feel unwell after the event, you MUST take a test and inform Test and Trace about attendance to the walk so we can pass on details of other attendees.
  • You must not attend walk if you have any COVID symptoms OR FEEL UNWELL IN ANY WAY. Please inform us to any symptoms of non-infectious pre-existing conditions that could be confused with COVID so that we can be aware before the day of this. Anyone showing symptoms of any illness on or during the walk will be asked to leave immediately. We will also be enabling a more flexible refund policy for those who may need to cancel due to Covid symptoms.
  • You MUST follow current social distancing guidelines, please have some common sense and courtesy. We will be taking routes and stopping in locations where social distancing can be maintained.
  • Please do not touch structures and gates unnecessarily.
  • You may bring your own precautions if you wish i.e. face masks, although they are not required for the event as long as social distancing is maintained.

Please remember this is new and strange for all of us, and requires everyone to play their part in keeping us all safe and being able to enjoy activities once again. We look forward to seeing you on the walk!
