In the ancient woods within the wider Nymans, the sandstone cliffs have been a canvas for graffiti for over 300 years, an exceptional historical record of those who lived, worked and played in the area. One particular rock face, accessible only by a very narrow walkway, bears hundreds of carvings over several square metres. Difficult to photograph as a whole this model has been created to show the range of marks that previous visitors have left.

Can you help us transcribe the graffiti & reveal the story of who these people were and how they fit into Nymans’ story: https://tinyurl.com/vwk32sq
