The hillside outline of the legendary Bures Dragon was created as part of the 2012, Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
So why a dragon in Bures? It relates to a local legend that, in the Middle Ages, the servants of local knight, Sir Richard Waldegrave ( a distant relative of Geoffrey Probert) , encountered a dragon on his land but when they tried to kill it with arrows, 'they sprang forth from its ribs as if they were metal or hard stone'
Geoffrey Probert with assistance of Dennis Ambrose, Adam Norton and David Cowlin, decided to bring to life the legendary Dragon - often with sheep grazing on the field unaware of the mortal danger they are in !
It can be seen along the Cuckoo Hill to Clickett bridle path on the east side of Bures
Alternatively visit the View Point at St Stephens Chapel
