Here you will leave the concrete track and head diagonally across the field behind the pill box. The path crosses a fence at the point where there is a wooden hurdle but there is a gate which may be open a few meters to the right of this (it can be a bit muddy here). Once over the fence, continue in the same direction until you join a raised footpath running alongside a dyke towards Rye. This is the Wainway Wall which was built in 1598 to protect land that had been previously reclaimed from Walland Marsh. This is one of my favourite parts of the walk, there are views across the marsh in every direction, the ancient town of Rye, the wind turbines and the back of the dunes. The grassland is dotted with sheep and there are often a couple of swans on or near the water.
