Gap in the Hedgerow
Allowing a peak into the field to the west of the bridleway that links Chiltington to Warningore Wood. It is noticeable that the level of the field is higher than the bridleway which has been formed by two different processes over the centuries. The first is the use of the bridleway as a drove road tramped up and down by countless farmers and their herds of livestock which gradually flattens the highway down. In the meantime the ploughing of the field raises the level of the field by throwing up the earth to the side, though it is not as pronounced as some where the head of the field was used as a turning point which would through up even more earth, which was added to by the dumping of any boulders or stones uncovered during the ploughing. Much of this earth was fashioned into embankments and planted with hedgerows to prevent animals either getting in or out of the field.
