A gambol around Grittleton. Some are accessible to wheelchair users. There are a couple of stiles and footpaths across fields. Part of your gambol will take you along the Fosse Way, a Roman road which starts in Exeter and travels diagonally across England to Lincoln. The village is in Wiltshire in the area of South Cotswolds, an area of outstanding beauty. For further information on the area see related link, above.
Today, houses located in the main street of the village, bear names such as Weighbridge House and The Old Laundry, giving clues as to their original purpose. The existence of Lime Kiln Cottage, on the outskirts of the village indicates the existence of industrial activity. In Alderton Road houses still show the original layouts for estate workers cottages; built in pairs, all with ample gardens, each family could be self sufficient in vegetables.
One source indicates each house had a pig sty. He he...Not for this pig though! Can you find him? (Check out other cachers photos in the gallery below)
