The Icknield Way passes through the village of Linton in Cambridgeshire. I missed its most wonderful piece of engineering when I walked the trail last year, so I had to return. I give you the Linton Clapper Stile! A Grade II Listed Monument & 1 of just a few such stiles remaining in the UK!
This yew tree in the churchyard of All Saints' Alton Priors is said to be 1700 years old. Looks like 2 trees but is only 1 #thicktrunktuesday
I can't believe I never noticed Scutchamer Knob before - maybe before volunteers did such a great job in clearing it out? I put this right this week. Loved the seat made from a couple of pallets giving fabulous views across the North Wessex Downs National Landscape. @theridgewaynt.bsky.social
Looking down at Coney’s Castle from Lambert’s Castle Hill. It’s behind the pylon & mostly hidden by the tree covering. It’s a much smaller Iron Age hillfort than Lambert’s. The woodland along the ramparts are covered with bluebells in springtime. #WessexRidgeway #GreatChalkWay #Bluebells
Yesterday the #ThamesPath 30th Anniversary Source to Woolwich Relay began with a short walk to Ashton Keynes. Seen off by Dame Fiona Reynolds, High Sheriff of Gloucestershire (who did most of the walk) & local MP Roz Savage. Lot of fun! Future legs here - nationaltrail.co.uk/en_GB/trails...
Lambert’s Castle Hill 846 feet high overlooking topped by an Iron Age hill fort that is around 2,500 years old. The hilltop was used as a racecourse at some stage and was also the site of a fair for over 200 years until 1947. Fabulous 360° views. #WessexRidgeway #GreatChalkWay
The very pretty village of Ashmore along the route of the Wessex Ridgeway is the highest village in Dorset. At this time of year, the nearby Ashmore Wood provides a spectacular display of bluebells. Photos can never fully do it justice! #WessexRidgeway #GreatChalkWay #bluebells
Chelsea Quay on the north bank of the #Thames opposite Battersea Park. 1 of the new riverside spaces resulting from the Thames Tideway project.
