Exploring the villages of North East Bedfordshire

Another Sunday, another outing. This time to the village of Yielden/Yelden where we walked around the remains of the Norman Castle- large mounds covered with grass

Then further on we visited the Church and a war grave

Just 20 years old, Private Robinson of The Norfolk Regiment died at the end of the First World War
Inside the church a plaque to commemorate a terrible World War Two accident and below those on the ground who were killed by the crash
Yelden was in close proximity to USAAF base at Chelveston
