The Wansdyke, an earthwork that runs across parts of Wiltshire and Somerset
The Wansdkye is a amazing site, and if you can its worth seeing for yourself. there are various point you can walk to, to see the earthwork for yourself.
I love walking, its a great way to let things go and relax. but whilst out walking i see some amazing things that I want to share. Things and places that people may not get to see.
I explore the landscapes and share what I find.

Wansdyke - Britain's Prehistoric Canal System

Another 'First' for the Channel - a complete narrated flyover of Wansdyke East showing how the Higher river levels account for the gaps in the Dyke that would refresh the canal with a collection of 'springs' under the ditch - and hence its wiggly direction and location to the side of hills!!

Wansdyke Part 1: Strange Things in West Woods
The Wansdyke is a linear earthwork, probably about 1500 years old. The Wansdyke Path follows the Wiltshire section of the dyke. It's walk along a ditch essentially, but it's a very evocative ditch which passes through some great countryside, including, on this section of the walk, West Woods, believed to be the source of the sarsen stones used to build Stonehenge.
I took a couple of detours, to find a standing stone and a long barrow in West Woods, and to walk a section of the Wansdyke which, for some reason, the Wansdyke Path avoids.

SUMMARY
=======
Wansdyke (from Woden's Dyke) is a series of early medieval defensive linear earthworks in the West Country of England, consisting of a ditch and a running embankment from the ditch spoil, with the ditching facing north. There are two main parts: an eastern dyke which runs between Savernake Forest and Morgan's Hill in Wiltshire, and a western dyke which runs from Monkton Combe to the ancient hill fort of Maes Knoll in historic Somerset. Between these two dykes there is a middle section formed by the remains of the London to Bath Roman road. There is also some evidence in charters that it extended west from Maes Knoll to the coast of the Severn Estuary but this is uncertain. It may possibly define a post-Roman boundary.

Most articles and history books state that Wansdyke was built 1500 years ago by the native Britons to defend themselves against the invading Anglo-Saxons. There are many flaws to this theory. Using recently published evidence provided by Robert John Langdon, I explore each theory in detail, using many data sources, including historical data, LIDAR and Geological modelling. I will leave it up to you to decide which theory you believe to be true.
A special thank you to Robert John Langdon for allowing me to reference his research. Below are links to his work:

The Wansdyke is a linear earthwork, probably about 1500 years old. The Wansdyke Path follows the Wiltshire section of the dyke. It's walk along a ditch essentially, but it's a very evocative ditch which passes through some great countryside, including, on this section of the walk, West Woods, believed to be the source of the sarsen stones used to build Stonehenge.
I took a couple of detours, to find a standing stone and a long barrow in West Woods, and to walk a section of the Wansdyke which, for some reason, the Wansdyke Path avoids.

Like Hadrian’s Wall, Offa’s Dyke and the Antonine Wall
Wansdyke is in the West Country south west England. It is the most mysterious of them all.
Maybe early medieval defensive linear earthworks.
35 miles through the countryside of Wiltshire and Somerset, this large defensive earthwork was built some 20 to 120 years after the Romans had left Britain. Set to a east-to-west alignment, it is thought that whoever built the dyke was defending themselves against invaders from the north.
it is thought that it was built by the native Britons as a defensive measure against the Anglo-Saxons. Battle of Mons Badonicus. In this battle the native Britons, supposedly led by King Arthur himself, hit a decisive blow against the Anglo-Saxons.
Less popular hypothesis, is that the wall was built by the Romans themselves as a defensive measure against local Britons
Another theory behind Wansdyke was that it was built by the West Saxons to stop the pesky Britons from trying to retake their lands

Like Hadrian’s Wall, Offa’s Dyke and the Antonine Wall
Wansdyke is in the West Country south west England. It is the most mysterious of them all.
Maybe early medieval defensive linear earthworks.
35 miles through the countryside of Wiltshire and Somerset, this large defensive earthwork was built some 20 to 120 years after the Romans had left Britain. Set to a east-to-west alignment, it is thought that whoever built the dyke was defending themselves against invaders from the north.
it is thought that it was built by the native Britons as a defensive measure against the Anglo-Saxons. Battle of Mons Badonicus. In this battle the native Britons, supposedly led by King Arthur himself, hit a decisive blow against the Anglo-Saxons.
Less popular hypothesis, is that the wall was built by the Romans themselves as a defensive measure against local Britons
Another theory behind Wansdyke was that it was built by the West Saxons to stop the pesky Britons from trying to retake their lands
