We walked past the entrance to the footpath as it was obscured by bushes and an adjacent gate

The Burton Dassett war memorial is to be found on the village green on Bottom Street, Burton Dassett. It takes the form of a Latin Cross with flared ends, an octagonal column, square plinth and a two stepped base. There are 15 names for World War 1 and 10 for World War 2 in th eform of an additional brass plaque containing details of an American Bomber crew unrelated to the village that crashed there. The memorial wa sunveiled by General Gage 22nd January 1922, the monies being raised by public subscription; the masons were J F Booth and Sons. The memorial was fully restored between 1996 and 1997 to commemorate the centenary of the parish council. The original masons Booths became Hornton Quarries Ltd, so the restoration of 1996 was carried out by the same firm that built the memorial in 1921. The parish incorporates the villages of Northend and Knightcote. The memorial is exceedingly weather worn and could do with a refurbishment.

A circular earthwork is clearly visible on the ground on Harts Hill. It measures approximately 15m internal diameter, the ditch is 2m wide and the entrance (facing SE) is 2.5m across.

There is documentary evidence for a windmill here from the Post Medieval period and possibly earlier. It was of the post mill type and was restored in the 1930s but blew down in the 1946. It was at Windmill Hill. The beacon is what is left.

Burton Dassett Hills Country Park boasts 100 acres (40 ha) of rolling hills with breathtaking panoramic views. On a clear day, views stretch beyond Coventry. Opened in 1971, the park contains many historical sites, including the ironstone quarry remains and the 12th-century All Saints Church.

The give way lines are nearly none existent, so be careful of cars coming from the left unknowingly and not giving way

Gorgeous spot, take some change for the parking meter, if driving. If cycling be careful of the path at the rear of the park, excess water runs down of the hills and can get extremely muddy.

Sharp ascent, but over soon enough, worth it for the views.
