White Horse Historical Tour

While taking the scenic non-motorway routes to work I've been reminded of some of the "places of interest" on the way...

Uffington White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/uffington.html

Barbury Castle http://www.swindon.gov.uk/barbury

Hackpen White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/hackpen.html

Silbury Hill http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=145

Avebury Stone Circle http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=7

Cherhill White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/cherhill.html

Devizes White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/devizesnew.html

Stonehenge http://www.this-is-amesbury.co.uk/enter.html

Woodhenge http://www.this-is-amesbury.co.uk/woodhenge.html

Alton Barnes White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/altonbarnes.html

Pewsey White Horse http://wiltshirewhitehorses.org.uk/pewseynew.html

Crofton Beam Engines http://www.croftonbeamengines.org/about.html

Wilton Windmill http://www.arsharpe.co.uk/wiltonWindmill/

and some bits of the Ridgeway of course

Combining these in a circular route starting and ending at Hungerford, takes around 4 hours (plus viewing stops/breaks) and covers approx 170 miles.

For me, Sundays are in short supply at present so I am aiming for Sunday 23rd July 2006, around 10.00am.

Anyone else interested in tagging along ?
