After leaving Leeming Village we passed by Leeming mill, Thorpe Perrow, and Snape. We had lunch at Well and walked through Nosterfield Nature Reserve before we arrived at the 3 Henges.
The Henges date back to the bronze ages and are a mirror image of Orion's Belt. They were once covered in gypsum and would have been seen for miles around.
