SO4568 : Towards the Ludlow Anticlyne

taken 12 years ago, near to Leinthall Earls, County of Herefordshire, England

Towards the Ludlow Anticlyne
Towards the Ludlow Anticlyne
The great limestone ridge which includes Wenlock Edge to the northeast takes a kink at Ludlow. It retains its double crest though with a characteristic hanging valley between the two ridges (foreground, Leinthall Earls). The background contains the two high Bringewood summits- the Chase on the left and High Vinnalls on the right - these flank the apex of the bend in the ridge.

A long distance path along this ridge would make an excellent companion piece to the North Downs Way and South Downs Way, only the Silurian limestones produce very heavy muddy paths.
