Are you a poet?  Or simply love poetry?  Join local poets and poetry lovers for a rural ramble on our beautiful local downland with breaks for poetry readings.  Bring a favourite poem or your own creation to read or have read.

The ramble starts at the Steyning Downland Scheme Gateway in Mouse Lane and ends at the marquee in the Steyning Bookshop garden for tea, cake and more poetry.

You will need suitable footwear for walking on the Downs. Age 16+, Sorry no wheelchair access. Please arrive 15minutes before the start.

The event is hosted with many thanks to the Steyning Downland Scheme volunteers for their hard work tending this area of downland, and to the poetry lovers at Spoken Steyning for their support.
