Foxley Covert, an area of mixed woodland, and Hungerford Common are particular highlights on this section of the walk.

This is just before Templeton Stud. Follow this lane — it is officially a bridle path — for 3/4 mile to its junction with the Hungerford Road, passing through Foxley Covert along the way. Turn left and follow the Hungerford Road for 3/4 mile to a right-turn signposted to Lower Denford.

Take the Lower Denford turning, which crosses the main West of England Railway before reaching the Kennet & Avon Canal at Dunmill Lock Bridge.
