From the footpath, part of the long distance Wessex Ridgeway, is seen some of the facilities of Dauntsey's School. The school is a co-educational independent day and boarding school catering for children from 11 to 18 years of age. The Dauntsey family owned land in the parish from at least 1474 and in 1542 William Dauntsey's bequest founded a school and almshouses. From West Lavington the walk follows the Wessex Ridgeway long distance path up to Littleton Down on Salisbury Plain. Then along the Imber Range Perimeter Path before descending via a byway and a bridleway to the start. About 5½ miles.
