Yes, it was superb - we found some good stuff, long forgotten paths and rights-of-way as well as classic British countryside views. Church spires and smoky chimneys, kind of thing. We found a part-paved track, but it was down a couple of feet and made by the Romans, possibly to get burnt lime to the Wall, as it was built. It wasn't straight but it was a re-appropriated ancient trackway!


I know this is probably for a different reason altogether, but owning and training sheepdogs for herding like I do, I have noticed that sheep in huge flat fields nearly always take an often windy route to get from A to B even though the field has no obvious hazzards to negotiate. The route becomes part of the landscape and is used over and over by each flock year in and year out. I wonder if the route feels 'safe' to them and they are sensitive to its vibes?
