Went out pikeying at the weekend. The campsite was at Orcheston, just by Shrewton at the south of the plain. When we rolled in through the gate we noticed that there was a byway sign pointing into the gateway. A bit later I did an explore to find out where it went. Assuming it was right through the campsite I was at a loss as to where it went. But then I spotted a gap in the hedge by the gateway. At first look it was a drainage ditch, which I think is one of its purposes. But I then realised it was the entrance to the byway. What was interesting was how to get in or out. It was about a three foot drop, over a curve then on to a soil bank, but it was 90 degrees to the track so you would have to enter at about 45 degrees to get round. Sounds like a good opportunity to roll.
Here's so phone photo's:-
The entrance to the byway is that gap in the centre of the picture.
And here is the view looking back out from the track
The camera is level for this picture.
I know my Hippo couldn't manage that. Whats your thoughts? And, have you actually driven this one?
Cheers,
Dave
