An exciting new project for Brandon

Breaking New Ground have just released a new book featuring walks in the Brecks, including some around Brandon.  The book makes for a fantastic read in itself, but by following the trail you will get to see parts of the Brecks’ history you may otherwise pass by, ignorant of the fact they even exist.  Whats more you can enhance the trail by downloading an app, for both Android and iPhone devices, which will highlight points of interest along your visit … which is much better than cluttering up the landscape with signage!

The book starts with Brandon Park, then on to the town’s flint mines, before heading to Weeting (Botany Bay and Broomhill), then Grimes Graves, Lynford and out toward Thetford and beyond.  The book is researched and written by Tim Holt-Wilson, a fan of Brandon Heritage Centre, and is a must for anyone with an interest in our local environment.  You can pop in to the Heritage Centre any weekend to pick up a free copy.  Alternatively click on this link to download your a copy and download the app.
