Sutton Hoo

 While we were in England I finally visited Sutton Hoo, what a great site, the reproduction pieces were magnificent and was shocked to find out about the horseman and the queen burials I had no idea they were also undisturbed burials also. Seems there are more mounds along the river with a further two being investigated this year bringing the total to 22. 

We had a great time recommended anyone visiting the Uk should visit leave at least two hours to fully visit the site, house and museum.
