The Forest of Galtres was established by Norman Kings and spread North from York's walls. It covered 100,000 acres and encompassed 60 villages. As early as 15th century concerns were expressed about deforestation and by 1629 it had all but disappeared. The Hall is its legacy.

We are looking at the Great Hall and its soaring oak framed roof. It is a sunny day so the light can be seen coming through the Georgian sash windows and making puddles of sunlight on the pine floors. The roof glows in a warm brown colour.

If you'd like something even more dangerous, our archive is so old that we don't use these fancy modern rolling stacks. Ours are attached to a motorised chain that runs the length of the room. This means sometimes they like to move by themselves just a little, enough to keep you on edge.

Rolling stacks in the archive with some lovely old archive boxes on them. On the right of the image you can see the handles that have to be pulled to move the stacks, activating the connection with the chain beneath the floor.

The UK countryside is full of interdimensional portals. You just have to know where to look. I've decided to make a thread here of some of the best ones I've found on walks. 1. JRR Tolkien's Psychedelic Lime Kiln.

I can never resist getting inside an old lime kiln. This one was near Newton Abbott. The view up through the hole in the top of it to the overhanging trees on the ledge above is, I have to assume, even better than listening to the second Doors album on acid.
