This is another video in my series “Walks in Hampshire” accompanied by my Whippet (Logan). In this episode I undertake a 2.5 mile circular route from Shawford Down (just North of Eastleigh in Hampshire).

After parking my car at the car park  (Grid Ref SU467248) just off Otterbourne Road (a B road that runs parallel with the M3 motorway) on the side of Shawford Down, I firstly explore a WW1 wooden cross memorial before heading across the Down to the main War Memorial, from which I enjoy some stunning views over the Twyford valley.

I then head down in to Shawford, passing by a  “famous” railway bridge, and along Bridge Lane (that follows the railway line North). After checking out the site that once was Compton Place, I join the River Itchen (at Compton Lock). My route takes me back South along the course of the river where I enjoy the sights of some wonderful houses & gardens on the other side of the bank.

The weather was amazing (due to the forecast heat, we completed our walk by 9am) and this really was a pretty walk to experience.
