Wiltshire Hills - Long Knoll and Win Green
3 April 2004
Long Knoll
The grassy ridge of Long Knoll, a few miles south of Frome, just inside
Wiltshire
Looking east along the ridge
From the dip half-way along, looking along the hedge to the summit and trig
point
Having visited the trig point, George explores the other side of the barbed wire
fence - something he was all too keen to do
George on top of Long Knoll (288m / 945ft)
After a steep descent, we walked back along the path at the base of the hill
Looking across the valley to White Sheet Hill
The summit of Long Knoll from the road
Win Green
The byway along the ridge to the summit of Win Green
The stand of trees occupy the highest point by a few inches.
George lies by the toposcope on the summit of Win Green (277m / 909ft)
Today was not the clearest of days, but the toposcope shows that the views can
be extensive
The summit car park. George and I had spurned this lazy person's option in
favour of the ridge walk from the east
An impressive looking house seen from the ridge - Higher Berrycourt?
The rolling hills of west Wiltshire
