I left to coast to explore Danes Dyke which is a 4km long earthwork. Nothing to do with the Vikings, it is bronze age in origin and probably defensive in nature. A huge ditch with massive banks, it is very imposing and impressive. And also totally ignored. Not a single sign to say what it is, not even a sign to say keep out. So I didn't, and was pleased to be able to walk down most of its length.
As ever it is hard to photograph earthworks successfully, but you get the idea.
