    THE NORTH WESSEX DOWNS AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY Promotional Toolkit Issue 1 Photograph: Gary Prictor Fast and free access to the promotional resources you need to help boost visitor numbers Overview of The North Wessex Downs Photograph: North Wessex Downs The North Wessex Downs is a tranquil yet stunning landscape of rolling chalk downlands, forests, woods and dales. Beech woodland crowns the tops of many of the downs providing wonderful panoramic views for miles around. Thinly populated, the downs project a feeling of remoteness and timelessness. In the vast skies above, skylarks, lapwings and majestic birds of prey can be seen. The world famous Uffington White Horse and Avebury Stone circle are located on the Ridgeway path running across the north of the region along with many other ancient barrows and hill forts. Close to major conurbations, the Downs is the ideal place to get away from it all and enjoy the freedom of the countryside while respecting the environment. There are many footpaths, horse riding trails and cycle paths criss-crossing the landscape and taking in many of the best views and ancient monuments. If you prefer to travel by water you can hire a canal boat or go Photograph: North Wessex Downs Photograph: Anne Seth canoeing along the Kennet and Avon Canal. The North Wessex Downs has a great industrial heritage. At the Crofton Pumping Station on the Kennet and Avon Canal, you can see the world’s oldest steam engines or visit the only working windmill in Wessex at Wilton. There are also fine country houses.

    Mid Wilts Way Directions East to West, Split Into 13 Stages

    Mid Wilts Way directions east to west, split into 13 stages MWW directions east to west - Ham to Wilton Oct 2020 Maps: Landranger 174, OS Explorer 158 & 157 Distance: 7.9 miles (12.6 km) The MWW starts outside the Crown and Anchor pub in Ham (which is now an Indian restaurant). With the pub on your L, walk up the main street, following it first R then L, past Manor Farm House on the R. Just past two houses on the L, the first of which is thatched, turn L into a field on a bridleway. Proceed along the wide, stony track for half a mile (0.8 km) into the second field, to reach a wooden post next to an information board about the Ham Estate. Turn R, across the field (the landowner leaves a broad path to follow through any crops) aiming for a gap in the hedge at the top of the field on your L. (This is not the official right of way as the landowner has shifted it to the west, presumably to minimise the space taken up by the path in the field to the east). Go through this gap, turn R to the corner of the field and then L along its edge. After approx 150m turn R through the line of trees and pass through a gate. Continue in the same direction diagonally up Ham Hill, and pass through a gate in an "empty" fence into another field. Maintain direction to reach another small metal gate at the top of the hill,.

    2009 Mills on the Air (525KB)

    Mills on the Air - 9th & 10th May 2009 A very enjoyable weekend was spent at the now usual venue of Cattells Windmill, Willingham. The weather was warm and dry. The mill’s sails are removed at present, undergoing maintenance and repainting, so the Mill was not operating this year. A record number of visitors kept the Mill owner, Richard G8FTE, very busy this year. Many climbed the Mill staircases to the top and some 30 club members and families visited over the weekend. Thank you to all those who took the trouble to come. On Saturday morning, after setting up the station, we were rewarded by extra large portions of coffee cake. I think somebody had cut it into 8 when it should have been 16, but nobody told Sarah. Mrs Cowley worked hard and the on-site cafe proved very popular throughout the weekend. The station used the club's G5RV aerial driven by the FT 840 transceiver via the MFJ ATU, set up inside the visitors centre. This is a very interesting and informative area with a great deal of information about this mill and mills in general. When Lawrence 2E0LCM arrived the rig was changed to his ICOM 7000, which performed very well. Over the weekend we worked 35 Mill stations, 5 Special event stations and made 92 contacts altogether. ‘After event’ logging was used since the laptop was badly affected by RFI. The logging application used was G0MDO’s Easilog EL6.
