Private Land The sign is presumably referring to the strip of land between the two tracks, both of which are public rights of way. Not that it's obvious why anyone would want to venture onto that particular area, given the dense scrub at that point.

Byway off A303 Part of a byway that leads from Stapleford to Chitterne. On the right is Yarnbury Castle, a hillfort dating from pre-Roman times.

Road block Junction of tracks north of Yarnbury Castle. Although marked on the map as a "byway open to all traffic", someone has clearly decided that it should not be, with the route blocked by this farm implement.
