Dist:0.4km<br/>In this shot the sun has just risen above the mist filling the region between the Hangers and the Downs. Climbing the hill, it was noticeably warmer when we passed the boundary of the temperature inversion.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Lythe Lane (Steep BOAT 31) is deeply incised at it ascends the scarp of Lythe Hanger. The surface is uneven here, but not difficult to walk or ride, and improves as one climbs nearer the top.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Slightly staggered junction of Ridge Top Lane and Lythe Lane, at the top of Lythe Hanger. Both Ridge Top Lane, going west (to the left), and Lythe Lane, going south (to the right) are unsurfaced byways open to all traffic (Froxfield BOAT 48 and Langrish BOAT 22). The other two limbs of the crossroads (behind the photographer) are metalled (although the surface is deteriorating).

Dist:0.8km<br/>Wheeler's Lane from Broad Way and High Cross joins Ridge Top Road. The metalled road turns right (west) here; to the left are two byways open to all traffic ([[1416594]]).

Dist:0.8km<br/>Minor road between Broad Way and Ridge Top Lane, just south of Wheeler's Farm.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Lythe Farm is located just to the east of Lythe Lane, a minor road which deteriorates just here to a rough stone track, before climbing to the top of Lythe Hanger.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Croft Cottage (marked on maps as High Croft), a thatched cottage on the south side of Broad Way, near Froxfield.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Lythe Lane (an unclassified road U214) deteriorates from here into a roughly surfaced track, before climbing Lythe Hanger as Steep BOAT 31. The wing fences and hedge shown here at Lythe Farm tend to suggest that the road is private beyond this point (the road is the track to the left).

Dist:0.9km<br/>Topiary outside Kings Cottage in King Lane, opposite the turning to Froxfield Farm.

Dist:0.9km<br/>Ridge Common Lane leads from the A272 road to Winchester south of here behind the viewpoint. The hedges have been neatly trimmed well in advance of the bird breeding season. Only a few minutes north of Petersfield, a nice accessible square.
