Promenade du CAUE Promenade "des mange-cailloux"

A forest envelops the folds of Fermanville, covering their thin soils with a coat of leaves, branches and seeds. The paths are engraved in the relief: the Crève-Coeur, Curé and Houvetteries hunts. Often peasants and hunters, they become buildings when they are lined with solid granite blocks piled up. Trees greet us with their lighted trognes under their wind-combed hair. We cross the streams and guess, in the forest, the lines of walls that drew the contours of the green meadows described by the poet Marie Ravenel. The roots of a beech tree slide along the cornerstone of the wall of a now buried field and its multiple branches seek the light. It is a rock-eating tree that explores the sky and the earth.
