The Pilgrim's Trail on Twyford Down at dusk. Looking northwest along the Trail where it climbs Twyford Down on the way to Winchester. This bridleway forms part of a long-distance route (St Michael’s Way) between Winchester and Mont St Michel in Normandy.
Sheep on Twyford Down This flock of sheep graze the annexe of St Catherine's Hill nature reserve that is on the eastern side of the M3 motorway cutting. The Pilgrim's Trail crosses the foreground from left to right. Beyond the thorn tree are the deeply incised 'hollow ways' leading down towards Winchester, known locally as the Dongas.
Tangier Farm, Bishop's Waltham. The Pilgrim's Trail runs across in front of the hedge in middleground.
