Dist:0.2km<br/>Handsome old farmhouse and what looks to be barn conversions adjacent for stylish accommodation close to Knighton town but with a rural cachet.

Dist:0.2km<br/>On the left, the A488 begins its twisting course between Knighton and Monaughty. On the right, the lane will eventually climb up to Bailey Hill.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Signs warn of the speed limit which applies on entering the built-up area of Knighton.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Looking across the valley from the public footpath to barns and the farmhouse on the right. A horse is being exercised in the training rectangle on the left.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The bridge-like structure is a section of the gravity fed water supply to Birmingham. With part of Knighton town behind, nestled in its valley bottom site between the border hills.

Dist:0.6km<br/>This quarry now supports reedy saplings struggling to find enough sunlight on this north-facing hillside below Great Frydd Wood.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Taken from the Offa's Dyke National Trail on a hill named Ffridd, this looks north west to Garth Hill above the town of Knighton, in the Teme Valley.

Dist:0.7km<br/>Between deep hedges like a Cornish cousin, the lane winds along one side of the valley up to the farm.

Dist:0.7km<br/>A flag flutters on the skyline marking one hole in this field where sheep also graze. The hedge is being laid on the right field edge beside the ODP.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The lane on the left winds up to Cwmgilla farm.

Dist:0.7km<br/>As ever in this area, sheep graze lower fields.

Dist:0.8km<br/>The contractor has cut the hedge and left the offcuts obstructing the path. Maybe he has never heard of ODP. Or thinks that the few walkers this time of year won't mind. A small gap has been left, or more likely been made by walkers to get through. Scruffy, ill-thought out and unprofessional work in my humble opinion. (And yes I could do better).

Dist:0.8km<br/>The National Trail and Offa's Dyke descend to Knighton beside the edge of Great Ffrydd Wood. This affords pleasant views over the small golf course that is passed to the east, of northbound walkers.
