Oddford Vale, Fonthill Abbey Woods and Hatch: 2006 [8]

Walk number 8 from Nadder Valley Walks -- "Eighteen circular walks exploring the diverse countryside of the Nadder Valley",
produced by the Tisbury Footpath Club... -- Oddford Vale, Fonthill Abbey Woods and Hatch.

A walk in mysterious, beautiful terrain: through the secluded Oddford Vale, and fringing the old Abbey Woods,
where a reclusive 18th-century millionaire -- William Beckford -- constructed his fabulous 'dream palace'
("now a ruin, and tantalizingly hidden from public view..."). Return across a pastoral landscape,
and see the western Nadder Valley at its most serene.
