Gypsey Race eastward through Foxholes Bottom The Gypsey Race is the northernmost Chalk Stream and the only watercourse on the High Wolds. In dry weather it sinks into the chalk and looks like a dried up field drainage ditch, very wet it floods! This photo from the bridge on Skipper Lane which also shows the Highway Boundary post
