    A very interesting walk! Thanks for sharing. I heard that The Ridgeway is believed to have been the first route into Britain, when it was joined to mainland Europe over 8,000 years ago. For at least 5,000 years travellers have used the Ridgeway. It provided a reliable trading route to the Dorset coast and to the Wash in Norfolk.

      Always wanted to walk in the footsteps of the ancients/drovers etc. Since learning about The Ridgeway when young. Through Wiltshire, away from the urban sprawl
      Thank you Dave. Liverpool aged 82 🕊️

    Yes, yes. I can picture myself being the kind of man you are, walking along the countryside, like, alone enjoying all that I see. Very nice.

    Just silence, birds chirping, wind whispering in the trees (or in the microphone 😄), blue sky with perfectly lined up clouds, sounds of footsteps ... almost everything you need for a bit of happiness and to calm down. Thanks a lot

    Very nice walk in the countryside, following a country road, which becomes a small grassy road and then a path.
    Fields of Rapeseed as far as the eye can see and green fields too, but yellow predominates!!.
    Very pretty views of the treetops and sky; real lace.
    A friendly hello from Dave to start; thanks to him.

    Hi Dave, I have enjoyed a few of your walks but it would be so nice to know where they are in UK and possibly a little narration to point out landmarks etc. I am very fond of Tony Robinsons series and he makes it all the more interesting by stopping at these landmarks and telling the story about it. Just a suggestion.

    Different question…what kind of crop is that with the yellow flowers?

    • @DavesWalks
      @DavesWalks  10 місяців тому

      The yellow flowers are called rapeseed, they produce an oil that is an alternative to olive oil. Whilst the name is kind of inappropriate, it comes from the Latin word "rapum," meaning turnip which the plant is a relation of.
