Scutchamer Knob is an ancient Iron Age burial mound and historic landmark on the Ridgeway. Along my King Alfred’s Way bikepacking route, it was a memorable spot to pause before the final stretch to Reading. 📜 Once a Saxon meeting place, this hilltop offers panoramic views of the surrounding Berkshire downs—a perfect blend of history and landscape. 🚴‍♂️ A short climb rewards you with quiet reflection and wide-open skies.

Great northern place to park up and start the King Alfred's Way

Dating back to the Iron Age, this Anglo-Saxon knob would once have been much larger and considerably more prominent. This is an ancient burial chamber but could also have been an important assembly place for troops or a marketplace. It also goes by the name of Beacon Hill and Scotsman's Knob.

Jarn's Mound and Wild Garden was constructed by British archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851-1941) who is best known for his excavation and reconstruction of the Bronze Age palace of Knossos on Crete. He lived on Boars Hill from 1894 until his death and was passionate about protecting the area and maintaining its beauty for others to enjoy. He constructed an artificial mound which is 15 metres high to bring out the magnificent views over to the city of Oxford in one direction, and the Vale of the White Horse in the other.

Easy access to the Ridgeway.

The Blowingstone is a perforated rock in a humble garden at the foot of Blowingstone Hill, part of the Wessex Down escarpment that hosts the Ridgeway National Trail. If you blow through one of the stone's many holes in the right way, it makes a loud booming sound. Legend says that it's how King Alfred The Great summoned his troops from atop the White Horse Hill for the Battle of Ashdown.
