"The Footprint of God"

Take a look at this stunning fossilised Giant's footprint in South Africa. Maybe the Aldworth Giants went there on holiday a few millennia ago?

Washing a Giant

Giants have to put out their washing too you know?

Signs in the Landscape

An ancient Yew Tree thought to be over 1000 years old stands in Aldworth churchyard. The tree has been struck by lightning several times over the centuries but its curious shape and strange disfigurement could hint at some altercations with the Aldworth Giants during its lifetime.

Evidence of Giants at Grim’s Ditch

Across the Downs end near Aldworth and Streatley, there is a long ditch that, legend has it, was ploughed in one night by the Devil. However, a more plausible explanation for this strange geographic feature is Giant activity as the creatures are well documented as landscape architects.

Historical Evidence of Giants

Thomas Hearne – 18th century Oxford aniquarian:

"With respect to the milliaria between Aldworth and Streatley, I have lately been informed that one of these stones of gigantic size was formerly to be seen in the middle of a field near Kiddington, about a mile west of Streatley. The occupier of the farm removed this immense stone, with a team of eight horses, to a more convenient spot about a quarter of a mile distant, where to this day it still remains. The story that it was thrown hither by one of the GIANTS is still told, and as implicitly believed by the common people; who say, further, that the print of the giant's hand, made when he grasped the stone, may yet be distinctly seen!"
