  • Today I am walking with Kevin Hall and exploring the delights of Old Winchester Hill in Hampshire.
    Old Winchester Hill is a chalk hill surmounted by an Iron Age hill fort and a Bronze Age cemetery. It is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a National Nature Reserve.

    Thank you for going to old Winchester hill. This was a favourite walk for our family for many years.( living far away now) It always felt like a pilgrimage, maybe we had lived there in a past life.!

    There is a narrow path underneath the yew wood.
    If you walk along it and get to the middle of it. Shout "bogies" loudly it echos around the valley its an amazing echo chamber i discovered it shouting at my children to slow down 🤣 so much fun I always wonder if iron age fellows did just the same.

    One of my favourite parts of the South Downs Way. Just down the hill to the West is the beautiful Meon Valley with its clear chalk streams and further to the East - the forest of the Queen Elizabeth Country Park.....and the whole area is a maze of narrow country roads.

      I need to explore more over this direction - it certainly looks lovely!

    • @RichardVobes

    Very interesting. It reminds me of the old Indian burial mounds that you can find around certain parts of the US.

    On a birdy note: Chiffchaff (song) in the carpark and (call) under the yews. It really is Spring!

    I did enjoy that, well done.
    That pit at 11:25 was interesting, I do reckon it was as a result of explosives testing.

      It may well have been - I don't know enough to say. :) Thanks for watching as ever.
