Coming once more down the hill into the valley of the Coln, we must cross the old Roman road known as the Fossway, follow the course of the stream, and, about a mile beyond the snug little village of Fossbridge, we reach the great woods of Chedworth. These coverts form part of the property of Lord Eldon. His house of Stowell stands well up on the hill.
The Irmin Way, between Cricklade and Gloucester, viâ Cirencester. Acman Street connects Cirencester with Bath. Icknield Street, running to Oxford. The Fossway, extending far into the north of England. This magnificent road may be said to connect Exeter in the south with Lincoln in the north.
