Manger White horse hill Uffington
The Manger
The manger is a strangely shaped valley, which is thought to have been formed by the melting of ice in the last Ice Age. Cheese rolling was held down the side of the valley during 'The Scouring of the White Horse' every seven years. Folklore suggests that the manger is the supernatural feeding place for the White Horse, which would travel from its vantage point on the crest of the hill on moonlit nights.
