A byway near Fovant that's popular with walkers, cyclists and horse riders have been repaired using recycled materials.

Wiltshire Council's spread road planings onto around a kilometre of Old Shaftesbury Drove.

They're being reused following a recent resurfacing of the A30 in Wilton.

The local authority say the upgrades will mean the route is easier to use all year round.
