Throughout the year, the copse undergoes seasonal transformations, with vibrant autumn colors and delicate spring blossoms providing ever-changing scenery. In the summer, the dense tree cover offers welcome shade, while in winter, the copse becomes a winter wonderland, with frosted branches and a serene atmosphere.

Rotten Green: Service vehicle access to the M3 Fleet Services Please see <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2491478">SU7956 : Rotten Green, Hampshire</a> for a view of this entrance taken in 2011, nearly 5 years prior to this one. The security has been tightened up significantly and it would not be possible to access the motorway from here without some form of security pass. The road from which this was taken is called Pale Lane.

South Western Main Line: Looking towards Fleet station This is the view from the A323 Fleet Road bridge along the dead straight section of four tracks looking in the up direction of Fleet station and London. 

The railway through here is, for all practical purposes, dead straight from Farnborough down to Basingstoke, via Fleet and Hook, a distance of about 14.0 miles or about 22.5 kilometres.
