Dist:0.5km<br/>According to a nearby explanatory board, this earthwork is considered the finest archaeological monument in Bedfordshire. It is the remains of a motte and bailey castle in use after the Norman conquest by the de Trailly family who were under-tenants of the Bishop of Coutances. The castle had fallen into disuse by 1360.

Dist:0.8km<br/>The public footpath shown here runs between Rifle Range Farm, shown in the background at the south end of Yelden, and Newton Bromswold behind camera. The footpath suffers from a lack of signposting at the farm end, possibly starting through the farmhouse garden, and it follows the south side of a stream for much of its way.

Dist:0.9km<br/>This mast is operated by National Grid Wireless and another, but a few yards away and well disguised behind the trees, belongs to Orange Personal Communcations. Both are beside the Three Shire Bridleway which emerges from the spinney shown here to join the farm track northwards to Rifle Range Farm and Yelden village.
