The boys run up the Orford Castle motte
An Orford Day Out, Orford, Suffolk - 17th February 2018
Orford's another of the places that we haven't been to for a while, so armed with English Heritage membership we head off to the castle for a small picnic, some climbing in the climbey-tree and a trip to the quay - featuring the awesome smoked cheddar from the Pinney's shop.

Fred and Harry
Picnic on the motte
We have a micro-picnic
Fred and Harry do piggy-back with 10-minute friends
A pigeon takes off from the keep
Harry runs around
The gang roam around inside Orford castle
Fred looks around
The town of Orford, with the Ness lighthouse in the background
More of the town of Orford
A view over Orford Ness
1628 graffiti, and a picture of a castle
Some 1643 graffiti
The rooms of Orford Castle
Harry sticks his head up a chimney
Harry looks at stuff
Isobel inspects a cabinet
The gang look down the well in the basement
Fred's got a tree growing out of his head
Walking up the path from the square
In Pinney's of Orford
Harry in the Pinney's of Orford smokehouse shop
Isobel peers at food items
Fred on the foreshore
A boat bobs around on the River Ore
Harry has a drink
Isobel folds the blanket up
Another fishing boat, from Lowestoft
On the quay at Orford
An E-Type Jag has its bonnet up
The Deben Trojan, a wreck-digging ship
The gang up on a shingle bank, in the sun
Harry, Fred and Isobel, contra jour, on bank
A wrecked boat
The skeleton of an old boat
Down in the marshes
In the marsh reeds
We walk over the marshes back to the castle
Harry stops for a slurp
Marsh grasses in the sun
A nice old farmhouse
