Tinney's trackways is a system of ancient holloway routes located west of Sharpham Bridge in Somerset. The trackways represent a significant example of medieval and early modern communication networks, formed by the repeated passage of pedestrians, pack animals, and vehicles that deepened the ground surface over centuries of use. The routes are characterised by their sunken appearance, with banks rising on either side where the ground level has been worn away. Such trackways are important archaeological features that illuminate patterns of movement, trade, and settlement organisation in the Somerset landscape across the medieval period and beyond.
