Along the Ridgeway - Wayland's Smithy to Uffington White Horse
DATE
Mon 5 Oct 2026
TIME10.30am - 1pm
LOCATION
Wayland's Smithy
SUITABLE FORAdults
Journey along (possibly) the oldest road in Britain, the Ridgeway, and time travel from the Neolithic to the Romans!
We will visit the 5,000 year old Neolithic tomb of Wayland’s Smithy before following the ancient Ridgeway to the Uffington White Horse, Britain’s oldest chalk hill figure.
Exploring the myths, folklore, and archaeology of this iconic landscape, we will uncover the cosmic significance of the horse as well as other key sites in the landscape, including Uffington Castle and Dragon Hill.
This tour is graded as moderate access, as it is a walking tour with uneven roads and with few places to stop and rest.
