We detoured on our way to the Cotswolds to see the white horse at Uffington. When we finally located it we drove up the hill, then got out and walked up to the site. It was windy and cold and started raining. The horse is so big that you cannot really see it when you get there - just parts of it at a time.

The large hill on which the horse sits is the site of "Uffington Castle" which dates from 2000 years ago, and is now only visible as various trenches and hillocks across the hill.
