Icknield Way

The Icknield Way is an ancient trackway in southern England running from Norfolk to Wiltshire along the chalk escarpment of the Berkshire Downs and Chiltern Hills[1]. It is considered one of the oldest continuously traceable routes in Great Britain, potentially predating Roman occupation[1]. However, its claimed prehistoric origins have been subject to scholarly dispute, with some arguing the current route may be medieval in origin[1].
