There is a very good show of native bluebells in this National Trust holding. Once this was an Iron Age hillfort. For reasons best known to themselves, our 19th century forebears levelled most of it.

A short path downhill through fields to Great Coxwell Tithe Barn.

SU2692 is mainly farmland apart from a short bit of A420 in one corner.

Pry Lane is now a quiet green lane and bridleway, but looking at the map, in the days gone by it looks like it was the continuation southwards of Great Coxwell's village street.

Wild hops grow quite happily in hedgerows around here. There used to be some commercial hop growing in this part of Oxfordshire. Maybe there still is, but if so it's on a small scale.
