Visited Knap hill for the first time today and what a lovely spot it is. I felt that along with adams grave it acts as a a pair of sentries guarding the southern approaches to Avebury. I look forward to returning when its not so windy and having a proper stomp around. A truly lovely part of the world and well worth a visit.
Waylands Smithy at noon. I would like to dedicate this picture to my friend and contributor to this site, Wysefool who passed away recently after a short illness. He loved the Rudge and the Smithy in particular.

Taken From the footpath leading to the ridgeway . You can see the burial mound on the edge of the hill.
Nice location on the edge of Savenake Forest overlooking Malborough. I visited the site today and the earthworks along the edge of the hill and among the woods at the top of the hill looked like they could be Iron Age. The position on the edge of the hill would suggest that it was part of a hill fort or enclosure of some kind.
