Bit muddy after rain, but nice ancient track. Prob best heading downhill (north to south)

Offa's Dyke is an 8th-century, 177-mile (285 km) ancient earthwork boundary built by King Offa of Mercia. It virtually runs along the modern England-Wales border. Now a noted national trail, this section near White Castle is an easy track section, and if you are going uphill, you have the joy of looking forward to seeing the castle very soon.
