Description
Red deer are the largest British land mammal. They are descended from the stags and hinds that crossed from Europe after the Ice Age. From Saxon times hunting rights were granted to the English Nobles and tracts of land were fenced to capture some of the wild deer. Bradgate Park where this image was taken, was enclosed with a timber pale boundary circa 1240.
It is now the only remaining enclosed medieval deer park in the East Midlands which still retains much of its original form.
