This walk takes you along quiet field and woodland paths to the site of an Iron Age hill fort. It then continues to a stream-side hamlet on the edge of Castle Hill. There are views across the beautiful Avon Valley with its wildlife-rich water meadows and pasture before returning along field and woodland paths to Godshill. Frankenbury is the site of an Iron Age hill fort that strategically overlooks the Avon Valley.
