Having studied this on the map for many a year, decided to take a very muddy cycle/push up to this fort yesterday. Marvelous ramparts – repelled me in parts when I came tumbling down into the deep leafmould. Redwoods are daunting and wildlife seemed rather large in brief glimpses. More trees being planted in plastic tubes – will be quite a wildlife haven. No indication that it is out of bounds. Didn’t mean to trespass – is it really private land...?
I just want it noted that I went to Grimes Graves on 30/03/03. We arrived on motorbike, numb and slightly terrified with ringing ears – or was it skylarks? A friendly biker that works there chatted about his Ducati (I’m a push-cyclist – I know narthing) and told us to come back after lunch. So we had a decent veggie burger at the Crown Inn on Crown Road.
Funny place to visit really, an old industrial site, so don’t expect it to awe and inspire like a stone circle. Its not exactly Magna either, but its a good stroll up and down the hummocks. There is a little section of mine that you can climb into, which gives some idea of how confined the mines were (but don’t do as I did – don’t enter this place with a flatulent friend). Did they use slaves or children? There is also a gift shop, which is essential these days, isn’t it?
If you’re into skeletons, there seem to be plenty of bones on the surface. I’ve got a lovely rodent skull. If you are not into bones, enjoy the skylarks and breath the fresh fresh Norfolk air...
