Holloways

These are not disused railway cuttings or gullies created by water, nor are they constructed on purpose. These are pathways worn down into the ground by centuries and centuries of people travelling throughout the country, mostly on foot, sometimes by horse. Holloways - ways made into hollows below the level of the surrounding ground - very very old.

They often feel like lush tunnels

The never ending upward holloway with tropical lvegetation
A more gradual ascent

Quite narrow holloway with a large tree clinging to the side.
