Centenary Way towards Kenilworth Viewed during a heatwave and the vegetation is showing some signs. It is entirely flat until you get to Kenilworth. A yellowhammer settled on the path just along this stretch but I wasn't quick enough with my camera.

Bank erosion, Inchford Brook The bank on the outside of the bend in the brook has been scoured away by flood water, causing a collapse. Conversely, sediment has been deposited on the inside of the bend. This process over time causes the brook to move its course, and to meander.
