Alfrick & Suckley Hills

This 5 mile trail begins on ground underlain by Triassic rocks before climbing Crews Hill onto the Silurian aged rocks of the Suckley Hills. The trail then traverses a variety of sedimentary rock types, all of Silurian age, on its way towards and through the Knapp and Papermill Nature Reserve. From the reserve, the route recrosses Triassic rocks an its return to Alfrick church. The trail visits the former aggregate sites on the Suckley Hills ridge-line and also explores evidence of the aggregate quarries in the Knapp and Papermill nature reserve.
