I was on the tour at 11 - it was fascinating. <br /><br />I did not know about the Giant's Cave. I walked up to the observatory to take some photos of the bridge but completely missed the cave. I have looked back at my photos taken from the Leigh Wood's end of the bridge and I can now see the yellow railings around the edge of the cave - no idea why I did not notice this at the time, concentrating too much on the bridge. <br /><br />Really interesting to read about this extra bit of Victorian ingenuity.<br />Davidhttp://alondoninheritance.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287675141745937676.post-41507139912797439512017-09-15T10:33:20.705+01:002017-09-15T10:33:20.705+01:00It certainly does - and with the tide in, too!It certainly does - and with the tide in, too!CarolineLDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00197813252586559665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287675141745937676.post-20224021580594432702017-09-15T10:10:26.217+01:002017-09-15T10:10:26.217+01:00Fascinating.
