If you use Google Earth search for "Hoad Hill" or "Sir John Barrow Monument"you can get a 360 (fake) panorama.

Veering OT for a moment.
Can any of our English, British speakers tell me what a "Kibbly Biscuit"is?
It was used by someone from Birmingham & may refer to football (soccer).
Wacko

It's a type of dog food!

A second common form in which dog food of the biscuit type is produced is in a finely divided form. This type of product, frequently referred to as kibbled, may be prepared in a variety of sizes. Commonly, however, it is prepared in a size which may be of the orderof A to A1 inch although it may be in pieces as large as /2 to 4 inch. This product is in form readily suitable for use under conditions such that when a liquid is added, the liquid is readily adsorbed and the product becomes soft and readily edible.

The rough, open-faced surface of kibbled food which, together with its more or less characteristic non-uniform size, are the main distinguishing features of this product, is typically obtained by a standard method of production. A sheet of dough may be baked and subsequently broken into small pieces by appropriate means. The fracture of the sheet produces in the kibbled product a comparatively high ratio of open unglazed adsorptive surface to closed glazed non-adsorptive surface; the latter surface, of course, is derived from the portion of the sheet which was directly subjected to the high degree of convection and radiant heat within the baking oven.  Ideal feed for Moderators.

   Woof Woof.

It's quite often used as a complete diet for pets, it's supposed to have all the vitamins and minerals required by the animal. I personally wouldn't feed my dog on it, he gets 1 lb of mince mixed with biscuits every day, when he was a pup the folks we got him from were feeding him a complete diet which caused havoc with his digestion and resulted in him having the runs. I soon cured that with a balanced diet.
  Hoadie would probably eat it because mixed with water it forms a porridge, ideal for the gnome who hasn't got any teeth.
  As you say Mike dehydration is a possibility if the pet hasn't got access to an adequate supply of fresh water.

Hoadie is very easy to feed. Just give him a Enfield and he can feed himself.
Always looking for military manuals, Dodge M37 items,books on Berlin Germany, old atlases ( before 1946) , military maps of Scotland. English and Canadian gun parts.
