Sizewell
Circular Walks – Directions
Walk
1 – Goose Hill • Kenton Hill • Sizewell Belts
5
miles - 2 hour stroll
From The Vulcan Arms, go over the stile opposite
the pub car park and cut across the field towards the power station
and the sea front car park. From here steps lead you down onto
the coastal footpath. Proceed northwards past the power station
where information boards detail the conservation and wildlife
aspects of the coastal area. Carry on all the way past Sizewell
A, (The square shaped building) and Sizewell B (the huge golf
ball building) until the perimeter fence turns inland. Follow
perimeter fence round and head towards the woodland. After 100
metres a footpath sign will direct you across a small bridge and
onto the Goose Hills woodland footpath. This broad footpath takes
you all the way through Goose Hill and then through Kenton Hills.
Keep to the main path until it turns a sharp left.
Follow the blue arrows on the marker posts located alongside the
footpath until you come to a sign directing you to The Sizewell
Belts. Walk down here, past a small pond, over a stile and across
the pasture.
The path then leads you up a steep bank and onto
Leiston Common. Looking directly across the common you will see
a small marker post located in the centre of the common. If you
walk in a straight line towards and beyond this marker you will
come to another stile. Go over this stile, turn left onto the
next footpath which will lead you down through a thicket and onto
Sandy Lane. Cross over Sandy Lane and follow the farm track up
over the hill, past the woods on the left until the track bears
round to the right. As it does so, you should see a gate on the
left with a stile next to it. Proceed over the stile and along
the lane until it junctions with a second Sandy Lane. Turn right
and the lane will bring you out on the road, 200 yards from the
pub.
