The Icknield Way

Just over the hill from Hadstock, climbing up from Linton past the zoo, is the ancient Icknield Way. This bit is particularly cool, as it is about 1.5 metres below the level of the fields on either side. I've thought about walking the length of it one day, and recording it with photos along the way. One day! :-)

From the National Trails website: 

The Icknield Way Trail extends from the Dorset coast to Norfolk. The ancient route of the Icknield Way consists of prehistoric pathways, old already when the Romans came. Dotted with archaeological remains, it survives as splendid tracks and green lanes along the chalk "spine" of England. The Icknield Way Trail runs from the end of The Ridgeway National Trail at Ivinghoe Beacon, near Tring, to the start of the Peddar's Way at Knettishall Heath, near Thetford, for 110 miles (177 km).The Icknield Way Trail is a route open to walkers, horse-riders and cyclists.
