Walking on The Wiltshire Downs
Summer is here! A lovely walk yesterday - on Roundway Hill Covert which is only about 6 miles from Melksham

The Marlborough Downs fall away at Roundway Hill, where a battle was fought (1643) in the English Civil War. The next hill across is known as "Olivers Castle" after Oliver Cromwell.

Behind the hill, the Marlborough Downs are a carpet of yellow at the moment.
