Soltice walk 2009

Members of the society enjoyed a summer Solstice walk to Thunder borough Hill in Southwick.

The walk was led by John Mills, who gave us a insight in to the archeological history of the area.More details about this area will be posted on the journal site.

Meanwhile the photos are interesting, a glow worms were seen on our return walk down the hill, in all we counted around 20, Glow worms are increasing becoming rare due to loss of habitat.
"They prefer grassland on alkaline, chalky type soils because this is where their food source of small snails is found"
