Makes the legs burn!

It has stood here for 1,000 years and has a varied history. Kings and queens have lived here, and the castle has survived many battles. Henry VIII had the castle converted into a palace in the 16th century. From the 17th century onwards, it passed through various private owners. Parts of it were demolished and rebuilt, changing its exterior several times. Eventually, it fell into disrepair until Lady Baillie, a wealthy Anglo-American heiress, breathed new life into the castle. In the 1930s, Leeds Castle developed into one of England's largest country estates and a center of lavish hospitality for leading statesmen, European royalty, and film stars. It hosted numerous lavish parties until the outbreak of World War II. The castle survived the war unscathed, after which the Lady continued to rebuild and alter it. When she died, the castle passed into the hands of the Leeds Castle Foundation, a charitable foundation she had founded to preserve it from then on. Although well-funded, it wasn't enough to maintain the castle. It had to be opened to the public. Today, the castle hosts a variety of tourist activities. You can visit it for £40, and approximately 500,000 people visit each year.

Regarding the patronage of this church: The apostle Thomas, one of the twelve whom Jesus called into the inner circle of his disciples, is not often mentioned in the biblical writings of the New Testament. The passage probably best known to most Christians is the one following the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which has earned him the unflattering nickname "Doubting Thomas" in popular parlance. The Evangelist John reports on this in the 20th chapter of his version of the "Good News" (this is the translation of the word "Gospel"). This theme, of course, also provided an opportunity for dissemination in religious art throughout many eras, for example in one of Caravaggio's most famous paintings – if you're interested, see =>> https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_ungl%C3%A4ubige_Thomas_(Caravaggio)#/media/Datei:The_Incredulity_of_Saint_Thomas.jpg – The feast day of the Apostle Thomas in the calendar of saints is sometimes celebrated on July 3rd, sometimes on December 21st.

Easy trail without wind

The Dirty habbit at the foot of the climb provides refreshing hill accompaniments

One of my favourite climbs in the area (alongside Coldblow Land further west). From corner of Pilgrims Way it is 1km to the top. Becomes prgressivley steeper, the final ramp is around 20% gradient.
