By Toutatis, fear not everyone. Getafix arrived in the post today.
Magic potion production can commence straight away.

The hillfort was reused as a Norman castle in C12, replacing an earlier castle in the town.
The castle has a massive motte, which appears impractically larger.
Could this be another reused Neolithic mound?

Thetford Castle just visible through Sunday morning's torrential rain.

The Hedda Stone.
Described as the best preserved and largest Anglo-Saxon carving in the country.
Thought to have been carved some time between the late C9 and early C10 to commemorate the destruction of the Medehamstede (Peterborough) abbey by The Danes in 870
