Discovering Britain (and Wales!)

New walking websites are appearing all the time, and a particularly good one called Discovering Britain, has just come online from the Royal Geographical Society. It explores different places, explaining how forces of nature, people, and the economy shaped the landscape. Several of the walks have significant interest for lovers of military history, particularly those about the defensive positioning of cities, fortifications and battle sites. These are self guided walks with loads of information and can be downloaded free from the website.

As yet there are no walks in North Wales, but due to our efforts there soon will be! We regularly review walking websites and always make sure that North Wales is well represented.
