James the Greater (the Latin 'major' is not translated as 'great' in English), to whom this church near Bratton was dedicated, was, together with his brother, part of the inner circle of Jesus' disciples. In his version of the "Good News" (this is the meaning of the word "gospel"), the Evangelist Mark enumerates a list of the apostles: "James, the son of Zebedee, and John, the brother of James—them he surnamed Boanerges, which means Sons of Thunder" (Mark 3:17). They were said to have had strong tempers, but were faithful followers of Jesus Christ, in whom they recognized the promised Messiah. According to the Acts of the Apostles, James was executed for his faith. His tomb in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia (Spain), is one of the most famous and important pilgrimage destinations in the world.

Coming from Steeple Ashton direction, this is a gentle off-road climb up to a crest then a steady downhill developing into a fast descent down through the trees to sandpits lane. Just be aware the two bollards at the bottom! Then a steady climb up towards East Town then onto West Ashton. A personal favourite.

If you are heading here by car please note that the car park is not at location marked on the app map I have included screenshots from a map in the photos to show you the exact location of the car park which is a short ride from the park itself. Coming of the A362 roundabout follow sign for centre parcs you will pass centre parcs to your left then a timber yard and to your right a road with open grass areas either side which is the entrance to Longleat house the Bike park carpark is then 2nd turning on the right and is quite a narrow entrance and hidden in the trees so be warned blink and your miss it, the entrance is at about 45 degree angle to the road so if your coming from the other direction it's very easy to miss and the only signs I could spot are to the left of the road opposite the entrance and on the white gate which is closed at night but should be open when you're arrive at the park, On busy days you can spot the cars in the car park from the road.

The oldest of the Wiltshire white horses this was originally cut in 1772 and restored in 1778. There was evidence of an older horse here facing the other way, but no strong evidence suggests how old that was. In 1872/1873 the horse was considered to be losing its shape, it was re cut and edging stones added. In 1957 the horse was concreted to preserve it. For the runner the trails around the top of the horse are great fun and the 33-mile Imber trail also passes here. There are nice loops from the car park above the horse or from nearby Westbury.

When you get to Sandpits Lane (coming from the north) I would recommend NOT then trying to take the bridle path west to join the A350. Unless I made a mistake, it's poorly marked and ends up in a mire of liquid mud in winter.

Lovely long off-road descent, good surface

Great trails for every ability

A fantastic bridleway. The surface is solid and mostly fine gravel which should hold up in all but the foulest weather. It did it on a roadie with 28mm tyres... no problems at all.
