Join me for an evening walk around a wild and windswept Iron Age hill fort on the outskirts of Devizes. This wildflower rich chalk grassland is abundant in natural beauty and wildlife.
We’ll pause to feel the energetic shift in the hidden dip at Oliver’s Castle and enjoy a simple picnic supper under the lonely trees.
