north elmham chapel ruins

 

last sunday afternoon Will remembered seeing a sign for a chapel ruin so we headed out to have a look. these first photos are from when we went completely past it and ended up down some farm tracks, confused that none of the fields had any ruins in. but we got to see sheep so it was fine.

on the way back out we realised it was literally through an open gate that we'd stopped next to so i could get off and look at the map that's next to it. anyway.

 

i want to say it was built in the 1100's and then turned into a castle/manor in the 1300's. it's old and very cool to clambour around in.

snail friend hiding and part of the original staircase inside the tower. monks walked up that and now i have too.
