Summary
| Description |
English: Great Ridge wood near Chicklade. Great Ridge wood lies on a ridge of chalk downland up to 225m high, capped by clay with flints, between the Wylye and Nadder valleys. The wood, which is 718 hectares, is owned by the Fonthill Estate and it remains in part an ancient oak woodland which is managed for nature conservation. It is also commercially forested with conifers as can be seen from the felled area to the right of the picture. The Fonthill Estate, see http://www.fonthill.co.uk/, which also operates a number of farms, is owned by the 3rd Lord Margadale, Alastair John Morrison, who lives at Fonthill House in Ridge near Tisbury.
This track is a bridleway that runs from Hindon in the south to Corton in the north, and here it crosses north-south through Great Ridge wood at a height of 220m. See 465057 and 465089 for views in other directions from this point. |
