Description
This ancient hill is an ideal place for dogs to let off steam. And while the pooch does the doggy stuff, why not take a look at the site of an Iron Age hill fort on the top of the hill? There's lots of history here, not just Celts and Romans, but also a railway museum and ironstone railway system.
Details
GPS coords for car park: 52.2193, -0.9265 Height restriction to car park. Dog poo bins throughout.
Walk
Walk to the end of the car park to follow the clear track over the gated level crossing and into the country park. There are clear, wide muddy tracks through the woodland with plenty of running space for dogs. Lots of dogs clearly enjoy a regular walk here, and we found a very sociable group of them on the right hand side after the level crossing. Expect a warm welcome and lively conversation from the locals!

Great spot and cafe
This is a great area for dogs who want to run and run. There is the Drovers Return in the car park which is well worth a visit. Big mugs of steaming hot tea and delicious toasties (made like you make at home not bought off a shelf and warmed up).
