Tale of Two Hartings

South Harting
Organised by : Rural Strides
This 6 mile walk explores the story of two Hartings, but which two? With more than a couple marked on the map (and perhaps more besides), the answer is not as straightforward as it might first appear.
Spanning from the medieval period onwards, this tale weaves together families, land, and inheritance on both sides of a local divide, shaped as much by faith as by wealth. However, look at the landscape today and you will realise that what remains only reflects the story of one Harting, the winners.
As we walk, well look beyond the obvious, uncovering traces of both presence and absence, and consider both what remains and what has been lost.
