Keen walkers can find out more about a series of four-mile guided walks around the borough's open spaces thanks to four specially produced leaflets.

The walks, which take in Farthing Downs and Dollypers Hill among others, were launched by the Corporation of London and Promoting Access in Croydon (PACE) last month. Also lending a hand was a Saxon Warrior who helped bring to life the ancient history associated with the walks around some of the area's best open spaces.

Free copies of the leaflets may be obtained if you call 0181 660 8533.
