A route taken by a funeral party is afterwards assumed to be a public right of way. Such routes are known as, “church-ways” or “corpse-ways”. There is a tradition that one exists between Brailes Hill and Bredon Hill, twenty-three miles away! It has been theorised that it is either a garbled memory of a sacred way or maybe ley-line linking the two.
