Wychwood Way

The Wychwood Way, a guide to the new 37 mile circular trail around the heart of the ancient Royal Forest. By Alan Spicer and Mary Webb, £5.50 including postage and packing. (£4.50 for Friends of Wychwood)

The Wychwood Way follows waymarked rights of way around the heart of the ancient Royal Forest of Wychwood in Oxfordshire, from Woodstock in the east to Ascott-under-Wychwood in the west.

The Wychwood Way is a celebration of 1000 years in the life of this very special area. It has been designed to highlight some of the most interesting historic landscape patterns and features, habitats and traditional forms of management within the former forest area.

This beautifully photographed guidebook takes the reader on a journey through time, from the evidence of the very earliest, pre-historic settlers through to the present day.

An illustrated map

An illustrated map of the Royal Forest of Wychwood Before the Enclosures, in full colour, is also available, price £5.00. It has a wealth of detail showing land use throughout the Forest prior to the enclosures of the 18th century.
