Wow this is fascinating. Little did I know when I paddled in the stream as a toddler!
-
I like to imagine how impressive the waterfall that cut Hubbard's Hills must have been as it drained out that lake...! :)
-
Wouldn't that have been amazing. I guess Cadwell Park was pretty soggy back then!
-
It def wouldn't have been very habitable! And in the medieval period it was ‘the valley where wild-cats are found’, of course...!
-
Have you written or can you recommend any books on Lincs geology/history?
-
I have one on 'Stone Age' to Medieval period in the Louth region here: http://www.caitlingreen.org/p/the-origins-of-louth-archaeology-and.html … :) Not really a decent single >
