Starting at the Pewsey Downs Car Park, we head up Walkers Hill to see the Neolithic long barrow called Adam’s Grave. After this we walk across the top of the Alton Barnes White Horse on to Milk Hill before joining the Wansdye, which we will walk along until we start to descend along the Tan Hill Way, with clear views to Knap Hill and beyond. On this walk we will be accompanied by David Carson from Alton Barnes, whose farm covers all this area.
