Glad to reach the old Iron Age fort and set up camp. First job, brew up on my old army mess tins!
Overnight camp out in Chiselbury Camp, an Iron Age hill fort on the top of Fovant Down, famous for it's Great War camp badges carved in the chalk of its slopes. A 40+ mile ride from home in Southampton, up to Salisbury via Romsey and the National Cycle Network Route 24, then to Salisbury Racecourse where I picked up the old cattle drove that goes all the way to Shaftesbury.
Dusk falling meant I overshot my destination in the poor light! I rode another mile or two to Ansty before realising my mistake, and had to backtrack, so by the time I reached the old fort I had missed the sunset there and it was properly dark.
The sunrise made up for that though. Up at 5.30 and a short walk to the chalk cap badges while I brewed up some tea.
Back on the road shortly after, keen to get back before the midday heat.

A lonely wild flower I found on a hill overlooking a soybean field. It is located (until the next hard freeze) on then Smith Mills-Uniontown Road (gravel road connecting the two Kentucky towns) by itself. A nice surprise on this chilly autumn/fall day. This road is also known as Burbank Road (probably a farming family name). Please [View On White] and/or [View On Black]

The road to White Pocket is not on any maps (that I've seen), but I swear it's a real place. The rock seems to melt off of towering forms, while painted the colors of the rainbow. Simply amazing!
Pergola running through what used to be ornate gardens...this was originally constructed in the mid-1920's...although I'm sure it's been upgraded since...
I've fallen in love with another historic place...hopefully it stands a chance and will be fixed up...
