Ancient trackway heading NNE in East Dorset
Ancient trackway heading NNE in East Dorset
Lost in the encroaching greenery is the continuation of a once ancient trackway that stretched from Dudsbury hill fort on the River Stour, towards St. Leonard's Common (West Moors) and then on north to Wiltshire and NE Dorset. The track is traceable on old maps of the 19th century. The road in the foreground is the A347 (Ringwood Road) which was very busy - it was quite a feat to capture this with nothing on it!
