Stane Street is the modern name for the Roman Road that linked Chichester (Noviomagus Reginorum) to London. In West Sussex what remains of the road can be followed from the outskirts of Chichester (starting in Halnaker allows for a detour to see the lovely Boxgrove Priory) to the panoramic Bignor Hill.
On the maps the bridleway appears perfectly straight. Out in the open, near the top of Bignor Hill, the path is beautifully aligned with the distant spire of Chichester Cathedral.
Unfortunately, following it in the less traipsed parts requires a few turns....to avoid the brambles!
