Leicestershire Walks, No Man's Heath

No Man's Heath stands near the convergence of four counties. Warwickshire. Leicestershire, Staffordshire and Derbyshire. "No Man's Heath is situated at the junction of a number of roads. Two major routes are commemorated in place-names. Salt has always been an important commercial commodity, and Salt Street records the existence of long-distance tracks linking the saltpans of the west midlands with other parts of the country."

A picture taken by my late uncle in the 1970s.

The Trig Point (126m) could not be reached as the farmer had made sure all gaps in the hedge were blocked with barbed wire. While looking through at the Trig a friendly robin kept us under close observation.

Salt Street is thought to be an ancient trackway. Here we look back to the Church of St Andrew at Clifton Campville that we had visited in February 2007.
