Yes, one thing that's nice about squishy Norfolk is the rarity of Coal Mines.

I remember being surprised when I first moved here and banged in the post of my garden bird table.

The first two feet needed a club hammer, but then I found I could push it by hand right down to ground level .

No need for pond liners either.......

I believe there used to be coal mines in North Norfolk up Kelling heath Way.

I have to hammer in an earth rod in this afternoon at home, I suspect it will be a bit harder than your land, its easy for the first foot then solid clay. But down near Horning it used to be a foot of soil then sand.

I should have said the Squishy Broads National Park.

(oops..... )

So much easier and simpler to say than The Broads, a member of the... blah de blah......
