Overview

A wonderful walk from Pentridge (Near Martin) via the Curcus, Ackling Dyke (a Roman Road), Bowldish Pond, Blackbush Down and Pentridge Down.  The course takes in bits of The Hardy Way and the Jubilee Trail.  Mostly on the Cranborne Estate.  Gently hilly. Beautiful countryside and views.  Only one stile.
