Investigation into the Unused Doors of Bredon and Kemerton

Bredon and Kemerton lie in the shadow of Bredon Hill, an outlier of the Cotswolds escarpment overlooking the Vale of Evesham and across the Severn valley to the Malvern Hills. The hill itself is home to an Iron-Age hillfort called Kemerton Camp, as well as Roman earthworks and several standing stones, including Elephant Rock, called for its resemblance to the animal (and an excellent name for wine should anyone ever plant vines on the hill) as well as the King and Queen stones, that are claimed to cure illness should you pass between them. There is also an 18th century folly now sadly bedecked with mobile phone antenna. There are also the remains of an the 11th century Elmey Castle. Archealogical evidence indicates Bredon village was settled and farmed since 2500 BC and is home to a beautiful Manorial barn built of Cotswold stone constructed in 1350 at the time of the Black death, as well as St Giles Church nearby which is even older, parts of it being built in the 11th century. Kemerton is a stunningly beautiful village nearby, and both have many doors that are not used anymore.
