Indeed. Why would someone feel the need to sketch in a track if it wasn't actually there. What would he hope to gain by doing that?


I agree with you, although he did have form (the oval Sanctuary)

[quote]The thing with well worn tracks is that they obviously became like that because they were well used. The fact the stones were mainly gone (it would seem) by then doesn't mean the track was no longer in use. In fact it suggests quite the opposite doesn't it.


Yes, it was quite wide, a proper vehicular track, which is a slight surprise as it was a track to nowhere really, so more for pedestrians than stagecoaches - other than farm carts used it and maybe tourists were taken up there, it's quite pretty.

A slight puzzle - he shows the 4 stones in the middle of the track. Seems strange. Incidentally, there are 2 more shown, in a hedge line (one really big).
