Replica of Neolithic timber track above marshes, over 2km long, built by Neolithic villagers to access and connect their villages almost 6000 years ago! Original tracks (over 40 discovered) found by a peat digger called Sweet, in 1970, are now covered in peat and preserved for further generations.

The only way to walk here is in squares and rectangles, unless you want to submerge in peat bogs and marshes. Stay on the paths - or lay a new track. Up to you!
