ノースウォルド周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Interesting history at the locks/weirs but a fairly dull path. Little traffic to bother you.

Starting from the forestry commision car park, hed over the bridge and turn right. This will give you several options for forestry trails and if you head towards Lynford you can then pop on to the road for a short trip to Browns cafe.

The Stanton Downham Bridge was built during the first world war as a rail bridge to transport timber and logging machines. It's been a road bridge since about 1922. The bridge crosses the Little Ouse River.

The memorial honours all those who served in the 7th Armoured Division (The Desert Rats), the 4th Armoured Brigade (The Black Rats), and the 7th Armoured Brigade (The Green Jerboa) throughout history. The area also features a network of interconnected trails perfect for mountain biking, do watch out for walkers though.

A nice memorial here to the 8th Army and it's campaign in Africa during World War II. Nestled within the the outskirts of the King's forest there are a number of other memorials and structures related to 8th Army training here.

The Sequoia or Giant Redwood would have been planted as one of the specimen trees of the Brandon Hall estate. Edward Bliss made his money selling gun flints during the Napoleonic wars and used it to buy and create Brandon Hall and the surrounding land. Many of the unusual trees planted in what is now Brandon Country Park and the wider Thetford Forest are a legacy of this.

Just enjoy the ride 🚵‍♂️;barely no cars, if you lucky you might see/join other cyclists on your way - I did briefly - met a couple on their way from Northampton to Wells-next-the-Sea - what a ride. 🚲🖐

Perched up on its plinth after being recently refurbished.
