쉘튼과 하드윅 최고의 러닝 경로

Update August 2025. The memorial has been restored and is now in very good condition - see newer photos.

Only the outer earthwork bank is visible from the road but still a very impressive feature.

Located behind the hedge on the broad bend by the wide field entrance.

Venta Icenorum, ("Market-place of the Iceni") was the largest Roman town in East Anglia. It came to fame as the capital city of the Iceni tribe led by perhaps the famous queen, Boudica. The town is thought to have come into being around 60-61 AD after the tribe’s revolt against Roman rule. Venta Icenorum is one of only three towns in the UK from the Roman era that weren’t sacked, destroyed or built over by more modern towns and cities.

A small memorial to the crew of B24 42-50597 which crashed during take off on the 19th December 1944 while attempting to deliver air support at the battle of the bulge. The memorial is at the side of the field and not directly visible from the road. At the entrance to the field there is a wooden public footpath sign. The memorial is on the left, about 20 meters away next to the hedge. Sorry for poor quality photos. I will try and take better ones another time.
