The view of giant is best from the opposite hill. When I took my photo the chalk was very dull so viewing wasn’t brilliant but I know they restore him every now and again so he should be bright again.The climb up past the giant is very steep so if hiking poles would be a great addition and grippy footwear 👟

fabulous landscaped gardens at all times of year, especially the autumn

In 1878, the church underwent a restoration process.
