Location

A field east of Foulsham, Norfolk, UK.

Participants

Plans

One of two spanning midnight - 2016-11-28 52 1 - 2016-11-29 52 1 - ETA 23:30.

Expedition

This was easy enough and the first frozen geohash of the year. There was no wind so the cold did not penetrate. There was space to park at the field entrance and a perimeter path and tractor tracks led to the hashpoint with a small deviation around a bomb crater pool. There was a crisp grass frost and spectacular starlight.

In the Google Earth image, you can see five aligned bomb craters left over from World War Two. There were many airfields in the region and most of them got bombed, not always with great accuracy.
