I've now completed the alternative way to walk the #GreatChalkWay between Win Green & Overton Down. Am now happy that I've well and truly completed the GCW!

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...
We’re on a road to Nowhere!

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
My walk along the Wessex Ridgeway Wiltshire section between Ludwell and Hinton. An alternative way of walking the Great Chalk Way
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

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
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
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
Chelsea Quay on the north bank of the #Thames opposite Battersea Park. 1 of the new riverside spaces resulting from the Thames Tideway project.
