The footpath in Thame Park is straight as a Roman road, and very easy to follow. Even so, these stout marker posts have been put up at intervals, just in case you were thinking of wandering off. Thame Park is thought to be some of the oldest enclosed parkland in England. Some new tree planting has been done recently as you see here, with a new sapling, well protected against the animals that graze the park, growing up near the stump of its predecessor.
