The Green Chain Walk and Capital Ring (and Beckenham Place Park Nature Trail) These are long distance walks around London, the Green Chain started as a route from Erith to Crystal Palace, The Capital Ring sometimes follows the Green Chain or makes diversions from it. Various interesting diversions can be found to join Beckenham Place with Catford and Ladywell, Bromley and Hayes, Kelsey Park and South Norwood Country Park. The Friends can provide information on these destinations. The newly marked out Nature Trail proceeds from the mansion, crosses the valley and between the golf course, makes a loop through woodland and the Riverside Walk and returns to the Mansion.  The route can be picked up from Crab Hill entrance, Ravensbourne Avenue entrance, and from Old Bromley Road  entrance  once the river is crossed. A brochure will shortly be available with directions and maps. A leaflet is available from the Friends Visitor Centre in the Mansion on Sunday afternoons.
