Wayfarer's Dole: Rambles in the British Countryside

A collection of solitary walking journeys across England and Scotland, seeking out ancient trackways and the country's remaining wild places, and following in the footsteps of walkers, poets and travellers who wrote about them before. The title recalls the Wayfarer's Dole, an old tradition at St Cross Hospital in Winchester, where pilgrims travelling the road to Canterbury could claim a small portion of bread and ale.
