Footpath leaving Kimmeridge
Footpath leaving Kimmeridge
A paved path leads up the east side of the churchyard and out through the gate in the foreground into the field. The footpath leads up to the junction of lanes at the saddle/pass above the village, next to the disused quarry. This public right of way was, long ago, the main route out of the village. The way carried on past what is now Hyde Wood, past the Harp Stone and on over the chalk ridge to Creech. The more modern, and less steep road in and out of Kimmeridge is to the east, and has a hairpin bend at the junction with the track to Smedmore House.
