The South Hams in south Devon is an area of outstanding beauty, with a wealth of ancient green lanes. These tracks—some of which were ancient packhorse ways, drover’s or smugglers’ routes— are a hidden network of byways and a living link with past centuries. This new book contains twenty-four circular routes which are suitable for walkers, horse-riders and/or mountain bikers, and which incorporate green lanes in the South Hams. Each chapter includes a map showing the walk, together with the history of the lane and the local area, wildlife, etc.

The English countryside was once traversed by a network of green lanes, in use from prehistoric times. They were the routes for Roman legions, mediaeval travelers, tradesmen, drovers, and miners with their wares. Such footpaths, bridleways and long-distance trails are a part of our living history. The Green Lanes of England explores the history and present state of our remaining network of green lanes. The future of green lanes in our besieged landscape is considered on a local and national basis, and the opinions of conflicting user groups and county councils are also discussed.
