About Sue Vincent
Sue Vincent was a Yorkshire born writer, esoteric teacher and a Director of The Silent Eye. She was immersed in the Mysteries all her life. Sue maintained a popular blog and is co-author of The Mystical Hexagram with Dr G.M.Vasey. Sue lived in Buckinghamshire, having been stranded there due to an accident with a blindfold, a pin and a map. She had a lasting love-affair with the landscape of Albion, the hidden country of the heart. Sue passed into spirit at the end of March 2021.
I really liked this message, Sue. I enjoy walking on paths which I imagine past peoples walked upon. In our country, the Appalachian Trail is one which is considered “ancient” here. Definitely not as old as trails in the Mediterranean or other areas where early civilization lived. Smiles, Robin

This particular path is some 5000 years old, Robin, and passes through some beautiful and ancient sites.

Along the Ridgeway, you can see traces of our ancestors thousands of years old, still standing…

Ah, memories. Many years ago we backpacked the Ridgeway and wild-camped. At least we didn’t go backwards and forwards although it was as though we were lost in time, far away from the real world.

Time itself seems fluid on the Ridgeway with ancient sites all along its route.

The Ridgeway may be incredibly old

The consensus seems to be 5000 years… though who knows how much older and why it first became an established route.

In there the artifacts from the neolithic period are shown to have come from all over the british isles and beyond so there must have been a reasonable network of overland routes, if only to get to a non-overland route

Given the theories about Doggerland, it isn’t impossible that the ancient peoples travelled far more widely than we have thought.
