Interesting James, we do enjoy your walks of interest. There is another ancient village remains near Quebec Farm, not far from Knoock camp on the Chitterne road, it's just off the bridleway.
There are so many in Wiltshire & Somerset -The significance of Yarnfield may have been forgotten-Thank you for watching and your information which I will look up and try to visit at sometime 😊
Thank you so much for an interesting video James. I thoroughly enjoyed it & what beautiful countryside too. You could imagine the village & also King Alfred being there too. Thank you.
Cracking video James, thank you, always think of the battle when I drive through Edington, will make a plan to walk to the lost village in your footsteps. All the best and be well.
I really enjoyed this exploration of a forgotten village. I wonder how many people walked those hollow ways to battle, and never returned to their homes.
Great video as usual James, I like the different conjecture on the route King Alfred took, from a walkers perspective I have always believed he came from Stourhead, across Whitesheet hill, then to Eggburts stone, which may have been located on Court hill outside Kingston Deverill. I think he then went onto Southleigh woods where he camped before marching, over Battlesbury hill to Eddington. But this just seems more likely for me from an ex-soldiers perspective, and their is some evidence for this in the anglo-saxon chronicles.

The dreaded 4 words that every walker fears: "Bull in the field" Lovely video, thank you James
Thank you for watching this my friend -So many places such little time ❤️👍
Top notch video, best one yet! Amazing to think it was a village for possibly thousands of years but there’s so little trace of it now
So true hard to explain but you can see it was a village-Feet on the ground history and visits reveal so much-Thank you for watching

So true the army could have gone this way as White Sheet is only 2.5 miles from this Village
