SO7640 : Steps up to the top of Herefordshire Beacon

taken 13 years ago, near to Little Malvern, Worcestershire, England

Steps up to the top of Herefordshire Beacon.
Steps up to the top of Herefordshire Beacon.
To minimize the damage to the iron-age hill-fort (and the Norman motte on the top) from the tens of thousands of visitors every year, the Malvern hills Conservators have constructed granite and concrete steps.
This is the most popular and direct route to the top from the often-full car park.
