Many years ago, King Offa of Mercia decided to make a clear boundary between England and Wales, and came up with a ditch and wall, surmounted by a wooden stockade. It stretched form north to south more or less along the Welsh border. There's not a great deal to be seen today, though there are still some visible remains. But there is a long distance footpath along the entire length - not always exactly on the dyke though. and Ineke and I walked a part today, up to the top of a local hill, as it was all blue sky and sunshine.
