With Katarina. We started at Little Bullocks b&b at Hope End Green as I had been staying there. If you're not a customer public parking is not so abundant but this walk can easily be started at Hatfield Broad Oak or Takely. From LIttle Bullocks a track - Oak Lane - heads across something called Cow Common. With these names you would expect therev to be a lot of beasts here but it ius mostly arable land and we met no livestock till after Hatfield Broad Oak. Very easy walking on sometimes slightly muddy paths took us there past Hellman's Cross, Aldbury's Farm, Taverner's Green. From here we followed the Three Forests Way downhill to a footbridge and then north up Pincey Brook, passing some very placid cattle, and on as far as Bridgefoot Farm. Here we took a left and follwoed a footpath over the fields and to the right of some houses to find a road and after  going down it a bit a gate into Hatfield Forest. This would have been nice to explore more thoroughly but it was getting late and coming on to rain so we heeded fairly briskly north to reach the Flitch Way. Easily east along this as the light faded for about 3km till a footpath over fields past Runnel's Hey wood took us back to Little Bullocks.
