1 Feb - Ufton Wood - 940.9 miles to go


After two weeks of almost continual rain, finally got a break, and got out!

Parked at Bascote Heath, took the path (SP390623) along edge of the wood, north on track to the canal, eastwards to Bascote Top Lock, then paths, tracks and the road back to the beginning. 4.6 miles.

Easy-going paths and tracks. As with elsewhere, probably more attractive in the spring.

Look back towards Ufton from The Ridgeway
The Ridgeway Track (not much of a ridge)
Bridge 31 on the Grand Union Canal - the HS2 railway will cross the canal at this point
Hidden in the trees at Bascote Heath is a derelict little wooden building - I presume connected with the private graveyard a little further up the road which belongs to the Chamberleyne family of Stoneythorpe Hall
