The sign dubiously claims a max gradient of 15%. My Wahoo topped out at just over 6% which felt about right.

Perfect spot for a picnic

As the name aptly suggests; it's all in the photos. Nothing more to add. I was on a 200km touring ride, not attempting a KOM or some such. A very pleasant surprise nonetheless to hv encountered it - had no previous knowledge of its existence - glad to hv found it by pure coincidence. Always brings a smile to face to see cycling 'non-business' related stuff. Just pure awareness, friendly 🚲 stuff. 🙂

A ruin from medieval rabbit farming, Thetford Warren Lodge is a heavily defended house where the rabbit warrener would have lived. As rabbit fur was so valuable, both the occupants and their wares would have been targeted by poachers. Rabbits were still farmed here as recently as the early 20th century.

Thetford Forest, is a fantastic location for running, with numerous trails to explore through the trees. There are also play areas, art installations, plus toilets and a water fountain at the visitor centre.

Thetford Warren Lodge is an example of a rabbit warrener’s lodge, a bygone local industry of which little remains. The lodge was likely built by the monks of Thetford Priory in the late 13th century. It would have been at the centre of a huge warren where rabbits would be farmed. In the medieval period, rabbit meat was a banquet staple and rabbit fur was used to line the clothing of nobility. A highly lucrative trade, the lodge was built with thick walls to protect the warrener and the contents of the lodge from poachers. Interestingly, rabbits were still farmed here until the early 20th century.
