The Alton Barnes White Horse is cut into the hillside above the Vale of Pewsey, where the main railway and the Kennet and Avon Canal share the valley up to Savernake - a remote spot where they pass over the watershed into the valley of a tributary of the River Thames.Although we live only 10 miles from the Vale, it's not an area that we pass through very often; the roads are twisty and narrow (even if it is at the heart of other modes of transport), but yesterday we took a break, visited the Vale, and took a few pictures for our pictobook of Wiltshire.
