Thetford Local information |
| |
Although a relatively small place the Breckland market town of Thetford manages somehow to echo much of the history of the entire country. Grimes Graves, the prehistoric flint mines just a few miles to the north west of Thetford, is regarded as the oldest industrial site in Europe. As well as the flint workings the miners left a female figure carved in chalk, and an antler-pick complete with fingerprint, physical links to 5,000 years ago. Thetford Castle Hill is a Norman motte, but is thought to have been an Iron Age hill fort dating from around 250 BC.
