July 6, 2025, Scutchamer Knob

Scutchamer Knob is an ancient Iron Age burial mound and historic landmark on the Ridgeway. Along my King Alfred’s Way bikepacking route, it was a memorable spot to pause before the final stretch to Reading. 📜 Once a Saxon meeting place, this hilltop offers panoramic views of the surrounding Berkshire downs—a perfect blend of history and landscape. 🚴‍♂️ A short climb rewards you with quiet reflection and wide-open skies.

Came across this striking obelisk at dusk while bikepacking the Ridgeway. The monument stands on an ancient barrow, just off a well-trodden section of the trail. Its silhouette caught in the fading light made for a quietly memorable moment. There’s a small nearby car park and good access, but in the evening it felt remote and peaceful. I found a discreet wild camping spot within 2 km of here — the surrounding downs offer open views.
