I'm a little confused on direction:

he continued riding westward at a hard gallop for a good ten minutes or longer until he came to the eastern boundary of the plantation,

He rode east correct - to the gate in the eastern wall . . .
Quote:
Stoatie dug into his pocket pulling out a key to unlock the small iron gate, then relocked it securely, speedily riding forward in the direction of the Downs.

Is this the South Downs? In which case, they are to the west or the south of the plantation (they curve round that way).
Which direction is Stoatie heading in?
