Bredon Hill and Midsummer Hill were once connected by a track, now partly overgrown lanes and partly grass footpaths, which never diverges from the line more than about 900 yards, chiefly to utilise old crossings of the Avon and Severn, and to avoid the swamps of Longdon Marsh.
Here, another ancient cross marks the divergence of a track to the river Severn, where there was formerly a crossing at the Barley House....
From the Barley House the 1828 map shows a road, now mostly disused and overgrown with brambles, continuing west over the crest of Longdon Heath, where there lies a cluster of cottages; and round the north end of Longdon Marsh, past Castlemorton to Midsummer Hill.

In summertime on Bredon The bells they sound so clear; Round both the shires the ring them In steeples far and near, A happy noise to hear.
And I would turn and answer Among the springing thyme, “Oh, peal upon our wedding, And we will hear the chime, And come to church in time.” But when the snows at Christmas On Bredon top were strown, My love rose up so early And stole out unbeknown And went to church alone.
They tolled the one bell only, Groom there was none to see, The mourners followed after, And so to church went she, And would not wait for me. The bells they sound on Bredon And still the steeples hum.
