Leave Wiveliscombe north eastwards down Silver Street and Golden Hill, passing the site of the cider factory on your left and the site of the Hancocks brewery on your right. At the bottom of the hill turn left then immediately turn right, taking the path between the houses on the right, (the left house being the old gas works). This is Cut Throat Lane and a popular dog walk, so care is needed.
Over the stile, keep left over another stile and cross the small stream. Cross the field and another stream running through the middle, leaving a ruined barn on your right and being carefvl not to worry the livestock. Over the stile, go up two fields crossing a stile between them keeping the hedge to your left, then turn left over a stile into a wooded shady path, Yarde Lane, with a view of Wiveliscombe and the old brewery on your left. Cross the road and follow the track uphill, passing the cow shed on your right then bearing right downhill through a gate. Keep on uphill with the hedge on your left round two sides of the field. To your left is Maundown Hill seen over Langley.
Go through the gate and turn uphill along Sandy Lane. At the T junction, pause to look over the gate at the old quarry, then turn right down Deepleigh Lane, carry on past a path on the left until the paths divide opposite a gateway. Take the right fork uphill and it will bear to the left after about quarter of a mile. The views on the left are of Castle Hill, an Iron Age Hill fort, and ahead of you is the Wellington Monument on the skyline. On your right there are porthole views of Wiveliscombe as you descend.
When the path goes under the trees there are many animals holes on the right and left. When you come down into the farm join the road and continue in the same direction as the path you have just left. Once you are over the bridge turn right onto a footpath labelled 'Cut Throat Lane half a mile' Keeping the stream on your right go through three fields and three stiles and at the end of the third field take the stile on the left rejoining Cut Throat Lane. Then make you way back to the Square up Golden Hill and Silver Street.
