Many thanks for comments yesterday – apologies for not replying – just got side tracked by other stuff.
These are Sweet Chestnut trees, two of several dozen all around the entrance roads and paths at the National Trust Sutton Hoo site.
I don’t think I’ve been anywhere with so many fallen chestnuts, the grandchildren thought they looked like baby hedgehogs – it seemed really bad to walk over them – walking over something edible was all wrong.
I brought some home to cook.
But then I remembered that the last time I’d tried this they had been really small and had fallen to pieces when I tried to peel them and, come to think of it, I don’t really like them anyway!
Back Tomorrow
