A walk around Trumpton...continued

The town of Trumpton as seen from a distant prospect on Windy Hill.



The view from the Fosse Gate



The strong German influence of the architects Elastolin & Hausser was mentioned in a number of accounts of the town in this period.



As did Raggy Dan prophesy:

'There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it'

  1. Excellent example of those venerable architects work. I am also impressed with squares and roads well maintained within the city walls. No filth strewn narrow lanes in these parts!

  2. It is a very fine backdrop in toy soldier land...
