Mr
Tides Run High in English Chan
nel, at One Point Reaching
Height of 35 Feet.
By Fred Loekley
Several summers ago I spent my va
cation at Bungalow City near Bay
ocean In Tillamook county. One aft
ernoon I was one of a' party of sumr
mer vacationists who walked down the
beach to the caves, and on over the
hill past the lighthouse to Short Sand
beach. With two charming young
women from Engfand I sat on the
warm sand with my back against a f
driftwood log while the, elder, who wa j
so graceful In the water that we called 4 a
her Venus, and her sister, whom I shall j I
call Jean, principally because It Is not j q
her name, told me of their home In r
England. "Not far from our home," I
said Venus, "Is a place called Worle-, f
bury woods. It is near Sand bay. All
about the edge of the woods is a de
fensive barricade of .stone. Within
the woods are scores of shallow pits
overgrown with Ivy. It is supposed to
have been a village of the early Brit
ons." Climbs Old Stone Road
When she told me of this ancient
British camp I hadn't the faintest
thought that I would ever see it. I
spent an hour Or bo recently In going
through Worlebury woods.
I climbed the old stone, earth and
corduroy road with Its long flight of
roughly made steps which rise steeply
from Camp Rood near Birnbeck pier. I
have visited innumerable mounds, bar
rows, fairy lings, cromlechs, Roman
walled cities and prehistoric remains
In Great Britain and France, but Worle
bury camp Is one of the most pictur
esque and interesting places I have
yet visited.
The camp is about 1500 feet long by
BOO feet In width. On the seaward side
the cliff drops so steeply that from that
side the village was safe from attack.
A series of ditches back of which is
a broad barricade of stone 15 feet high
protects the slope of the hillside at the
broadest end of the slope. Back of the
first stone wall Is a second. Along the
length of the camp the dry masonry
walls have been thrown down so that
there is a continuous rampart of rough
edged rocks. At the narrow end of the I
camp there Is a gap or entrance which
could be easily defended.
Ground Carpeted With Iry
Tasslng through this entrance which
is reached by a steep climb, I came to
a park-like opening In the oak and pine
trees. I stopped to eat my fill of black
berries, for the vines have run riot over
the broken etone walls and over the
shruhs.
Following a woodland path into the
growth of mixed timber I soon came
to the heart of the camp. On all sides
shallow pits were to be seen. They
varied In size from five to 10 feet
armss and were usually from four to
six feet deep. Kvery pit was lined with
Ivy. The ground was a solid carpet of
ivy. From the trees banners of living
green waved in the sea breeze. There
were 93 pits In the 10 acre enclosure
within the walls. In the old days these
pits were covered with mud daubed
wattle huts of the early Britons. Dig
ging in the pits one can find bits of
charred wood. Tarts of 18 skeletons
have been found In the pits, the shoul
der blades and arm .bones showing deep
hacks and gashes, piobably from the
short swords of the Roman soldiers, for
the stone ramparts, of this old British
walled city proved no defense against
the Roman legions with their heavy
metal shields, their short swords and
their stout hearts.
Ilomantlc Ride Found
On many a moonlight night you will
see the young folks of today strolling
through the trails of this old camp or
sitting In these old pits discussing the
furnishing of a home of their own. It
is sometimes called Proposal H11U Lov
ers' Delight or Honeymoon Camp. The
deeply shaded woodland paths, the Ivy
grown pits, the moonlight falling In a
wealth of golden glory through the
trees, the sound of the sea on the rocks
near by make It an Ideal spot for lovers'
dreams.
Weston Is a beautiful residence city
In addition to being a favorite summer
resort.
From Worlebury hill one gets a beau
tiful view of the bay and of Bristol
channel. Nowhere In all Kurope does
" the tide rise as high as in Bristol chan
nel. In fact It Is said that there Is but
one place the Bay of Fundy, where
the waters rush In between the rock
shore of Nova Scotia and New Bruns
wick where there is a higher tide. At
Newport, Or., the tide rises but a few
feet. Here at Weston-super-Mare the
tide rises 35 feet. At Portsmouth it
rises 12 feet, at Plymouth 14 feet, and
at Liverpool 16 feet.
Bear Old Xorse 5am
From the ancient British camp over
i
looking the modern city at its feet one
can see the shore line of Wales, and a
few miles off shore two rocky Islands
can be seen. " The old Norsemen who
harried these coasts called them the
"Holmes." and they still bear the old
Norse name. One is Steep Holme, the
other Flat Holme.
Steep Holme lies five miles off shore
and consists of 60 rocky and barren
acres.
When King Harold was defeated at
the battle of Hastings, his mother,
'Gltha, took refuge on Steep Holme, and
died and waa buried there.
The crumbling ruins of the priory
' built there In 1320 are still to be seen
near the old fortress.
On Flat Holme the three ancient
graves there' Are said to be those of
three of the four men who murdered
Thomas a'Becket In Canterbury cathe
dral In 1170 Richard le Bret, William
de Tract and Hugh de Norville.
From Weston I wen) by the steamer
Duke of Devonshire to Wales. The day
was stormy, a gale was on, the boat
took twice Its usual time to make the
trip. So rough waa it that most of the
passengers were seasick. I didn't want
to stay around when most of the people
were shamelessly exposing to the pub
lic gase what they had eaten for break
fast, so I went far forward, held to the
rati and balanced myself to the rolling
or the vessel. We shipped a heavy sea,
which went completely over me, and so
I got. without extra cost, a sea bath
. though, of course, I would have pre
.( t erred, to have been wearing a bathing
suit In place of my uniform to take my
bath. 1
