Heritage Sites

We have progressed to our last Europe stop, this time around.  Along the way we checked out the Maiden's Lair.  This is a hilltop fortification established during Roman times.  They dug channels and piled dirt as high as possible to form defensive walls. We found our way to a back road, another one of these single track narrow roads. The navigator said you have arrived.  About 1km from here I spied a broken down gate and fence which was pointing the right way.  We broke into a farmers paddock and parked on his field.  Sure enough on top was the maiden's castle.


Thousands used to live here. Now it's just sheep.
