The village of Molash is situated in the North Downs, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
The 13th century St. Peter's church features attractive stained glass windows and a Norman font. The yew trees in the churchyard are over two thousand years old.
The walk passes through the rolling green pastures of the 4,500 acre Lees Court Estate, which is considered to be one of the finest in Kent. Then on to Shepherds Hill which takes it’s name from a corruption of an earlier form of ‘sheep wood’ or wooded hill grazed by sheep. Some of the buildings date from the fifteenth century. The walk continues on through Perry Wood which spans 150 acres. This woodland is abundant with wildlife including many rare birds, such as treecreepers, nuthatches and woodpeckers.
