This is owned by Essex Wildlife Trust <www.essexwt.org.uk> who run a visitors
centre and a museum dedicated to the Plotlands. They also organise walks
along the remains of the Langdon Hills plotlands - about a mile but takes 2 hours.
Dunton had its own plotlands and this exhibition/tour can put it into
context.
