Seen from Fleam Dyke, near Mutlow Hill, on a bright January morning. Fleam Dyke is a defensive earthwork built over a period of 150 years from the 5th to the 7th centuries, extending 5km across open chalk land from the edge of the (then undrained) fens at Fulbourn to (then) forested land near Balsham. It is one of four similar earthworks in the area, the longest being the Devil’s Dyke a few miles to the north.
