Dist:0.2km<br/>Abandoned wreck on Dane Valley Road. It had a notice stuck to it informing the owner to remove it or face prosecution. I don't think the owner left it there.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Not a terribly interesting picture, but an interesting spot. On the OS 1:25000 maps, this area is marked as an "Anglo-Saxon Burial Ground". It's not been looked after, and is now used by fly tippers and BMX riders. It's hard to tell if the bike jumps (one pictured here) are ancient barrows or have been piled up more recently, but the whole thing is rather sad. I suppose Saxon stuff is ten a penny in/on Thanet!
