[QUOTE="Jimmer, post: 56678, member: 9181"] The ongoing spell of dry weather has revealed some incredible 'parch marks' on the site of the infamous Drax Mausoleum, which was demolished in the 1930s. ([URL="https://friendsofholnestchurch.wordpress.com/the-drax-mausoleum/"]The Drax Mausoleum[/URL]) 'Parch marks' are formed when the remains of a sub-surface structure inhibits the crop or grass roots in the overlying topsoil and the result is an area of weak growth which can show as a white or brown mark reflecting the shape of the archaeological structure underneath. This suggests that the contractors didn't bother to remove the foundations of the mausoleum when it was demolished. I flew my spark over for the local church in Holnest to show the marks.
