Deadman's Grave, Icklingham, Suffolk

As the stone curlews were no longer nesting,
as they were in 1998, we were able to go much further along the bridleway at Deadman's Grave.  There was a considerable amount of thyme growing beside the bridleway and in its centre
in very sandy flinty soil.

Thetford Warren Lodge, Norfolk

We found considerable changes at
Thetford Warren Lodge since our visit
in 1998.  There were very large areas
of heather, which were taking over from
the thyme and lichen.

and lichen at Thetford Warren Lodge.
