Some paths were never lost - they were buried.
When I set out on a quiet countryside walk, I expected nothing more than fresh air and a simple geocache.
Instead, I found a message.
Hidden beneath an old oak tree was the first clue - a fragment of a journal written by Nathaniel William Turner, a man who disappeared without a trace in 1983 while mapping forgotten public footpaths.
Curiosity leads me deeper into the rural landscape, following a trail of hidden markers, buried containers, and long-abandoned routes that no longer appear on modern maps.
But Turner wasn't just documenting lost paths.
He was uncovering something far more dangerous.
As the journey unfolds, I discover a hidden network of erased footpaths, illegal quarrying operations, and a secret that powerful people have spent decades trying to keep buried.
And I'm not the only one following the trail.
With each step north, the truth becomes clearer - and more dangerous.
Because some paths don't just lead you forward.
They lead you straight into the past...
...and not everyone wants it uncovered.
