John Durrant, who writes the Living With Mental Health blog, took this photograph on our regular route round the roman fort at Burgh Castle yesterday morning. Sam Brown of Norfolk Wildlife Trust joined us to identify and observe flowers, grasses and crickets up close with hand lenses, and to nibble fat hen, black horehound, nettle, hawthorn berries, elderberries, blackberries, pineapple weed. We noted damage to the site and walls that was probably caused by metal detectors, for passing on to Norfolk Archaeological Trust. What people do for heritage’s wellbeing is up there with what heritage does for people’s wellbeing.
