Great easy little loop with beautiful views of the Cotswolds
Tricky to get to from down. Here's how: Arriving at Knapp Ln and parking at it's end (google's alternative to parking on B4066) you find yourself on the beautiful Cotswold-Way. Walk right (South-west) towards the burrow and you'll soon realize the path doesn't actually go up there. Keep walking. There's a small silver memorial plaque to Kenneth Smith on the left hand side of this path and if you walk on about 50mts and climb the hill it will get you right to the monument on top. Its a steep unmarked climb but it's short enough and a much nicer way to get to this stunning place. The plaque says "What will survive of us is love".
