Dist:0.3km<br/>The turf maze at Wing follows a standard pattern, in which one long, unbranching path leads to the centre in a series of loops and spirals. Similar examples of this "unicursal" (i.e. one route) maze can be found at Breamore (Hants.), Hilton(Cambs.), Saffron Walden (Essex) and Alkborough (Lincs.), among other places.
