The old Tank Ramp lies north of the village of Burton Stather on the eastern bank of the River Trent, immediately below the steep escarpment that forms the northern end of the Lincoln Edge (Centre: OS grid ref SE 8662 1896). It was built at the beginning of WWII by the 79th Armoured Division of Royal Engineers and saw military use until around 1948. It primary purpose was for secret testing of amphibious craft and associated ancillaries, many of them prototypes, prior to their use in conflict (or as often happened, abandoned as examples of how not to do it!). The Burton site was chosen as the River Trent at this point, with its muddy banks and silted tidal flow, very closely matched that of European rivers such as the Rhine.

The Burton Stather Heritage Group has been working since May 2009 to renovate the Tank Ramp, and the site has been much improved, with the addition of new pathways and steps down to the ramp, picnic areas under construction, and new benches and seats.

Full details of how to access the site are available on the BSHG website.

Located high up on the Trent Ridge, Julians Bower is a medieval turf maze steeped in mystery. The nearby village church has an illustration of the maze at its entrance but it secret remains untold.

Easier to discover are the spectacular views from the maze you can see for miles across the confluence of the rivers Ouse, Trent and Humber, even as far as York Minster on a clear day.

Alkborough Flats and the Paddocks Tearoom are just a few minutes away or you can stay to enjoy the peace and quiet.
