Heath To Sea
July-August 2016
9 days walking the Ridgeway and Icknield Way. Inspired by the imagined journey of a prehistoric axe, discovered in a Somerset peat bog. The axe was made of jadeite, quarried in the foothills of the Alps, and offered into the water of Shapwick Heath over almost 6,000 years ago.
