The Minack Theatre
2024 Oct 22
Such a great place, if you're in Cornwall, then this should be top of your list.
To think that one lady and a good friend (the gardener) made this, is unreal, and for £10 we thought it was very reasonable, plus the gardeners were very helpful, explaining the plants, and where we could get them.
Make sure you book in advance though, as there are different options.

Corbridge Roman Bridge
2024 Jun 24
The remains of the Roman Bridge at Corbridge form part of the Hadrian's Wall World Heritage Site.
They were once part of the largest stone bridge known in Roman Britain and are amongst the most important bridge remains in the northern part of the Roman Empire.
It is thought that the bridge consisted of 11 stone arches and stood around 9mts above the River Tyne.
Worth a visit, nice little walk from the Free car park at Corbridge village car park.

Aydon Castle
2024 Jun 22
Great for the afternoon if you're a member, otherwise think twice about visiting. Aydon Castle is listed as a outstanding surviving example of a 13th century English manor house.(not to sure about that) It was built by Robert de Raymes, a prosperous Ipswich merchant. Unfortunately, his arrival in the north coincided with the outbreak of fierce hostilities between England and Scotland and the castle was pillaged and burned by the Scots in 1315. By the time Robert died in 1323, the war had destroyed him financially.
Access is down a single potty lane, and small car park.

RAF Defford Museum

A great free small but informative museum, unfortunately the plane and ambulance are no longer there, but definitely worth a visit if you're interested in this sort of thing.
