finally the offical Stour Valley Path signs appear as well as this first overview

A lovely old fashioned pub

"The Devil's Dyke is one of the largest preserved Anglo-Saxon artworks in England. The massive bank and ditch stretch in a near straight line for 12 kilometres (7.5 miles) from Fen edge at reach, across the open chalk landscape near Newmarket, to the wooden slopes as Woodditton. The Dyke is best preserved at Gallows Hill near Burwell where it si 10.5 m (34 feet) high from the ditch bottom to the bank top."

Ben & J.Lo usually stop by on Sunday lunchtimes for a pint of Best and a Cinzano Bianco.

Note: the highest *pint* not the highest *point*. To find the missing “o” go to www.komoot.com/highlight/1530035

The Devil's Dyke stretches from Reach to Woodditton through Newmarket. It is an 11km bank with a ditch on the south west side. In parts it is as high as 9m tall. It is thought to be Anglo-Saxon and a defense barrier.

Can't do better than quote the welcome from the Fox Inn's website, "Where the unique and wonderful gather to enjoy exquisite food and drink, spectacular music and a grand old time. It’s a place where laughter is not far away, where musicians and performers can play their craft and where new friends can become old friends over a glass of something wonderful." Quite a billing to live up too? You will find that the Fox Inn does so admirably. Add to this at 123m it is the highest point in Suffolk that you can buy a pint, with the county top itself (Great Wood Hill) only a few metres higher.

Devil's Dyke is a linear ditch that runs in a straight line for 7 miles (11 km) between the villages of Reach and Woodditton. It separates the fenland to the north from the hills to the south and is thought to have been created by the Anglo-Saxons. Keep an eye out for unusual plant species, such as purple milk-vetch and bastard toadflax. It features on the Stour Valley Path and is a hugely enjoyable section, boasting views to distant Ely Cathedral on clear days.
