Good view at the top

My best tip to best experience Dover's Hill is by starting at the car park and walk along the Cotswold Way. A walk down into Chipping Campden is also worth a few additional miles.

A commemorative carving to celebrate King Charles III's coronation. Professional tree carver Andy O'Neill, of Bristol-based Wild Wood Carving, began work on the cedar in August and used a range of chainsaws to sculpt intricate designs into the tree. The wildlife-themed totem encompasses a variety of animals including butterflies, bees, owls, dormice, lady birds, a Roman snail and a Goshawk. On top is a bucks head to represent the park’s history.

Woohoo, you've made it to the top of Dover's Hill! Catch your breath and enjoy delightful views over Gloucestershire from this scenic hilltop.

At this little pocket in the County of Gloucestershire is Seven Springs, the official source of the iconic River Thames. At 229 miles long, the Thames is the UK's longest river, flowing through southern England all the way to London.

This yew hedge planted in 1720 is 13.1m (43ft) high and surrounds the house belonging to Earl Bathurst.

Lovely gravel track connecting Welsh Way to Daglingworth via Quarry

Dowdeswell Reservoir is a scenic stretch of water on the outskirts of Cheltenham. From the reservoir, you step straight into Dowdeswell Woods; a nature reserve that’s home to many species of plants and animals. Keep a lookout for birds including coot, moorhen, great crested grebe and little grebe.

Does what it says on the tin

Bloody steep! But worth it

Home to the cotswold Olimpick games. Great views from the 230m summit all the way over to the malverns.

Standing at 856 feet (261 m), Ebrington Hill is the highest point in Warwickshire. From the summit, you can see Birmingham’s skyline to the north and the grand ridge of the Malvern Hills to the west. The hill is topped with radio masts and pleasant crop fields.

Passes Daglingworth Quarry. Hanson Aggregates works Daglingworth Quarry, extracting limestone aggregate for road building, ornamental driveway stone and dust for brick making. Extraction of stone from the site is believed to have started in 1905, since when it has been in almost continuous use. The planning permission for the quarry expires in 2042 and progressive restoration is currently being undertaken. A wide variety of fossils are known from the Daglingworth Quarry. Oysters, pectinids (scallops) and echinoids (sea urchins) can be found within the Taynton Limestone and Hampen Formations. Discovered within the sandy lenses of Hampen Formation are rare plant fragments, and dinosaur footprints have been found near the top of the formation. These are now on display at the quarry office. The Shipton Member is generally devoid of fossils except, for a few beds containing borings and burrows made by marine animals such as molluscs and worms. At the top of this member is the Excavata bed where gastropods and the echinoids, Clypeus and Cidaris are found in abundance. Trace fossils, borings and bivalves are found in many beds throughout the Ardley Member. Fossils from large reptiles have been found from near the top of the member

Good way to cross the A417. Could be muddy in depths of winter I suspect.

Lovely open space for a walk. Was busy when I was there but still relaxing. Car park a little small so probably best to walk from Chipping Campden.

Ask anyone local and they'll tell you that this is the real source of the Thames. Unlike that place at Kemble, which is usually dry anyway, these 7 (seven) springs keep bubbling up the goods all year. Pity that it's a truck stop nowadays.

well worth a visit , you really feel the atmosphere!

Taking its name from the place where delicious cheese were once loaded onto boats for shipping to London, Cheese Wharf is now a brilliant wild swimming spot on the River Thames near Buscot. It's owned by the National Trust and there are a couple of parking spaces nearby.

Great afternoon in the woods. Quite a few trees downed by winds and heard one crash whilst on my walk , so caution. Paths very muddy due to logging vehicles.

This huge earthwork is all that remains of one of the largest Roman amphitheatres in Britain. Built in the early 2nd century, the amphitheatre — which measures roughly 150 feet (46 m) by 135 feet (41 m) — would have held around 8,000 spectators. At the time the amphitheatre was built, Cirencester (known then as Corinium) was the second largest city in England, second only to London, with a population of more than 10,000. The monument, which is managed by English Heritage, is free to enter during reasonable daylight hours.
