Tenbury to Cleobury road Unclassified but well used road. I used to find it a useful route, although hilly it avoids the 375m pass over Clee Hill when heading towards The Midlands from the west.

Grown out lane, Milson It looks like a strip wood, and probably serves as a shelter belt, but the map and close examination suggest that this was once a lane between two hedges, which ceased to be used. In these parts, stop using a road and it soon becomes a jungle, one which would gladden the black heart of the Sleeping Beauty's evil fairy.

Snow on a green lane in Coreley Looking down the green lane which used to be a through route to the Trapnell but is now a dead end due to a landowner forcing through its closure!  Taken on a snowy walk with more snow just about to fall.
