we stopped off at the rocks that are nicknamed "toad rock " me and my 2year old got out of the car and started to explore the rocks, the rocks were amazing to explore around with lots of different ways to go,  we spent a good  hour here exploring and looking around all the different rocks, there are lots of different rocks to explore 

No one really knows why these rocks are there, the rocks got it nickname from the pub that sits near Buy,  They are Sandstone apparently It rumored that the rocks could be old as 4,000/5,000 years old

This lovely church is still pretty local to me but I didn't even know about it until recently when  was looking around for a Redundant  church, when I found it was pretty shocking,  we jumped in the car and head over to Snodland, this church really give off horror vibes, the church itself is very small but worth a visit if you're ever in the snodand area, we spent a good 1hour 

So it said that this little redundant church is over 900 yers old, is said around about 1678 the church was abandoned for 250 years and unused for religious purposes. The beautiful church is made of two simple rooms.

the church is owned CCT and open between 10am & 4pm

we went over to TW for the day as we had planned other explores in and around the area, and I saw online about this turret of a tank,  so we park the car at the RSPB carpark and walked down to the torrent with our 2-year-old, anyone can do this walk as it suitable for all ages, without google maps though you would not know it there as it is hidden off the beaten path, Once you reach the turret there is an information bored telling you what it is, it's a very quick and small explore but same time it very interesting that it has been left there.  It does look like that the turret does get covered in water in the colder months 

So it said that this turret  was left in the woods back after the D landing in 1944, It also said it was left behind by Canadian troops, The turret is now located on RSPB nature reserve

We planned our tip up here a few weeks beforehand when the day came we drove almost 2hr here, there is an admission fee of £4 and they do take cash & card  the fort is not that big but worth a little visit, it also well hidden too we drove past it twice, there lots of different displays and within the rooms too, The stairwell is also one way down and one way up witch is great, you can easily spend up to 2hr here too  there some nice  view from the top of the fort too if you go on a nice day like we did there a  small breeze too 

so it said that harwich readout fort was built in 1808 and was used to help protect against Napoleonic invasion, it also said that this beautiful fort is grade 2 listed as well, and the fort is run by volunteers the fort was used in the wars ,  in 1969 the fort started to get restore, Harwich  redoubt fort  has been classed as an ancient moment
