WALKS IN WILTSHIRE at ROUNDWAY HILL (inc THE DEVIZES WHITE HORSE & OLIVER'S CASTLE) (4K)

[@martincannon1078]

I loved it when you said this is Logan and how he stood to attention! What a showman he is Dave. 🐕

[@DaveFord]

I think he had just woken up!

[@timgaynor3797]

I'm from the area, but live abroad. Lovely to reconnect with this stunning countryside on your youtube channel. Thank you Dave.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Tim & indeed thanks for watching.

[@jerrygale1994]

Thank you for creating and sharing another fabulous walk with us. Another one added to the "To Do" list

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Jerry. Certainly a great one for views!

[@jmshrrsn]

Thanks for reminding me why I’m so lucky to live where I do!

[@DaveFord]

It is a beautiful part of the county for sure!

[@JimNicholls]

Sad to see the white horse in that condition, Dave, and if left it will soon disappear. A quick spray of weedkiller on the grass and weeds growing through the outline would clean it up very quickly, so I'm surprised it's being left in that state. Another great walk, and I'm glad you didn't get rained upon - the clouds looked quite threatening for a while.

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Jim. We were lucky with the weather in the end as if it had got any darker then those views wouldn't have been as good!

[@catherineshipley5799]

Another lovely walk. Thank you.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Catherine. :)

Apparently the villagers are trying to buy the pub. The Ivy, Heddington

[@excession3076]

Let's hope they are successful. I know lots of pubs/inns are closing, but there are thousands of new houses being built in the South around villages and I believe there's a much better outlook for village pubs now than in previous years. (Not that I like the new building/housing, it's criminal that our countryside is being destroyed to accommodate uncontrolled immigration).

[@DaveFord]

I hope that it does re-open - it looks like a lovely building and makes for a great "pit stop" for any walks in the area.

[@AnnLand-sp7fw]

One of my favourite walks, I'm from Devizes. Sorry to have missed you and Logan 🐕

[@DaveFord]

What a lovely area to live in - having walks like that not too far away!

[@charlesfulcrum3170]

Hi Dave, another beautiful walk in fairer weather than we currently have. Shame the pub was closed and I hope as you do, that someone buys it. That view of the silhouetted trees on Oliver’s castle was quite something. I’m curious as to why 7 of the Wiltshire White Horses point to the left and only 1 points right. Any thoughts? Apologies, if I missed it in the video.

[@DaveFord]

Thanks Charles. I am not sure of the exact reason for the difference in the "pointing" position of the Devizes White Horse.

[@craigmarsh3221]

Good evening Dave i am so very jealous you find the most stunning walks the fort with the trees on top absolutely stunning scenery the while horse just great you are an absolute star bringing these lovely videos to KZbin 😊

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Craig. It is such a beautiful area around there and from the top of those ridges you really can see for miles!

[@RogerB747]

Nice to see the channel growing, Dave. I can remember when 35 was the max but now it is 239 in six days.

[@DaveFord]

Cheers Roger. Nearly 7.5K subs .... it would be great to get to 10K by this time next year!

[@lionelmarytravels6003]

Another lovely walk, Dave. Not in Dorset this time, but in the rolling hills of Wiltshire. That was a beautiful old pub. What a shame to find it closed. It's a lovely area around there.

[@DaveFord]

Thank you Lionel. I hope someone buys the pub and that it opens again - it is such a beautiful building.

[@keithjoseph5671]

Amazing walking tour in the wonderful countryside of Wiltshire with awesome trails through the woods

[@DaveFord]

The old maps can be viewed & downloaded, for free (there is no subscription) from The National Library of Scotland at maps.nls.uk/
