The Path: The formal Wansdyke Path is a long-distance walking route that primarily follows the impressive East Wansdyke in Wiltshire. ​Route: It typically runs for about 13 miles (21 km) between Marlborough and Morgan's Hill. ​Experience: Walking the path offers a spectacular experience, with sections that allow you to walk along the top of the impressive bank, providing commanding views over the surrounding Marlborough Downs and Pewsey Vale. ​Connectivity: Parts of the Wansdyke Path coincide with other regional walking routes, such as the White Horse Trail and the Wessex Ridgeway.

The Wansdyke is traditionally divided into two main parts: ​East Wansdyke: The most impressive and best-preserved section, running between Savernake Forest near Marlborough and Morgan's Hill in Wiltshire. ​West Wansdyke: A less substantial section running from Monkton Combe (south of Bath) to the hill fort of Maes Knoll (south of Bristol). ​Middle Section: The section connecting the two is often marked by the line of the old London to Bath Roman road.

​Dating and Purpose: It is generally believed to be post-Roman (late Roman or sub-Roman, possibly 5th or 6th century AD) and was likely built by the native Britons as a defensive measure against the expanding Anglo-Saxons.

​A series of early medieval defensive linear earthworks consisting of a large bank and a deep ditch. The ditch generally faces north, suggesting it was built as a defence against invaders coming from the north. ​Location: The Wansdyke runs in an east-west direction through the West Country of England, stretching across parts of Wiltshire and Somerset. ​Name Origin: Its name, Wansdyke, is thought to be derived from "Woden's Dyke", referring to the Anglo-Saxon god Woden.
