Black Shuck is one of many ghostly black dogs recorded across the British Isles. Sometimes recorded as an omen of death, sometimes a more companionable animal, it is classified as a cryptid, and there are varying accounts of the animal's appearance. Writing in 1877, Walter Rye stated that Shuck was "the most curious of our local apparitions. Black Shuck is said to be the influence for Arther Conan Doyles Hound Of The Baskervills after he visited the area.
Possibly one of the 3 best views in the village is from tge top of these ww2 era gun emplacements that were placed here as part of east anglias defences against a possible raiding german army during ww2, i have been lucky enough to see inside this emplacement and can report it is flooded most of the way through, this is a nano cashe with a difference, tweezers and a pen will be needed, please take care on the gun emplacements as there are sharp objects and the concrete is unforgiving and occasionally slippy.
