The post in the distance marks the Faesten Dic Trail. Faesten Dic is a dyke which is thought to have been constructed between the fifth and sixth centuries AD. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records tribal warfare in the Bexley area at the time. The waymarked trail shown here from the Summerhouse Drive entrance to Joyden's Wood follows the dyke.
