Old RAF service road through Honeypot Wood The four people seen in the distance were crouched around a clump of sedges they were trying to identify and then record, armed with a magnifying glass, scissors, tweezers and little plastic bags for collecting samples.

Honeypot Wood, an SSSI in the care of the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, is believed to be a remnant of a wild wood dating back to the retreat of the last ice age.  The main track follows the course of the old concrete service roads which in the more overgrown areas are no wider than narrow trails.   In WW2 the wood was used by the 392nd Bombardment Group based at RAF Wendling (USAAF Station 118) > <a title="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3943063" href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3943063">Link</a> for the storage of bombs and munitions.
