Ridgeway Trip 4

The morning did its best to be miserable, rain, traffic, the army shutting Salisbury Plain for the day, getting lost on a new retail-hell park. But I was fine, the day cleared and the ride across the Wans Dyke on to Silbury Hill and Avebury was great. Then up onto the ridge to Barbury Castle, and finally to a bizarre hotel up on the downs above Swindon, that used to be an RAF hospital.

It is hard to get a good shot of the stones at Avebury. Having a main road through the middle of the circle does not help. But I am pleased with this shot, gets a bit of the majesty and loneliness of the site across.
