Aerial Photo of Ivinghoe Beacon

This photo was taken in 1985, from a Hi Phase, a 12 ft open soarer. The heavily scarred path runs from the S. carpark to the Beacon and is used by thousands of walkers. The Beacon is the blob closest to the end of the path (the other blob is a triangulation station).

What looks like a track around the hill is actually the edge of an ancient fort. The main Westerly slope faces right over the road. The field to the right is popular for out landings.
