Overview

A lovely downland circuit, visiting the grey wethers on Fyfield Down, before joining the Ridgeway for a short distance.  Then following the Temple Bottom track to Rockley and back up onto the downs to return beside the race horse gallops on Barton Down. Mostly tracks so minimal mud and stile free. Bring food and drink for 2 stops. Dogs welcome!
