Day Three on the The Cambrian Way mountain trail 479 km (298 miles) with a total ascent of 22,460 m (73,700 ft). I think it could be Britain's hardest long distance trail. Its hard to say but looking at the map i think i started todays episode around the Mynydd Garnclochdy area i want give exact camping locations away. I was so wet from the rain all night i set about getting ready to walk around 4am just to keep warm. I was no risk at cold from the time of Year and in good health. So walked back up towards Mynydd Garnclochdy i think. The rain came back on top the hill. The rain was very bad so much so i could only see about couple of meters ahead what with the mist as well as the dark even with two powerful lights. By this time my cannon camera was destroyed by the weather i should know by now and my phone was useless take note people think phone navigation fine lucky i know this i used my garmin fenix3 gps watch with the track loaded onto so i knew i was heading in the general dir

I got the Oxford to Andoversford 853 Swanbrook Coaches bus. From Andoversford we walked up to Belas Knap Long Barrow. Belas Knap is a neolithic, chambered long barrow. It is a type of monument known as the Cotswold Severn Cairn or Cotswold-Severn group, all of which have a similar trapezoid shape, and are found scattered along the River Severn. Construction is estimated to have taken place around 3000 BC, with following successive burials over a period of years and then the burial chambers were deliberately blocked. What appears to be the main entrance to the barrow, with intricate dry-stone walling and large limestone jambs and lintels is, in fact, a false one. This may have been to deter robbers, although little in the way of value has been found in undisturbed tomb chambers. Alternatively, it could have been a ‘spirit door’, intended to allow the dead to come and go and partake of offerings brought to the tomb by their descendants. Excavations in 1963 found the remains of 38 human skeletons, together with animal bones, flint implements and pottery of the end of the Neolithic period (New Stone Age), circa 2000 BC. These burials, however, occurred over a long period of time and it may be that none date to the time when the mound was built.
We wild camped near Belas Knap i i did some sausage crafting. Watched the sunset i did not bother with the sunrise as the woods next to Belas Knap block the sunrise at this time of Year. Next day we walked down to Winchcombe where we got the 606 Marchants Coaches bus to Chipping Campden. From Chipping Campden we walked some the way to Moreton-in-Marsh we wild camped and walked the rest the way to Moreton-in-Marsh the next day where we got the train to Oxford
