Leaning Pines A rather splendid avenue of pines (Scots Pines I think) line the lane to Herne Poplar Farm. This view is back along the lane towards the main road with the farm and its associated developments behind the photographer.

Autumn's round the corner ! The tree in the foreground, near to the entrance to the lane that leads to Herne Poplar is already showing decided signs of autumnal plumage - and it's only the middle of August ! I think the hot dry summer has taken its toll on this particular specimen.

Rads End Farm This mellow bricked farm is on a right/left kink in the lane through Higher & Lower Rads End. I think the wooden top to the roof is a dovecote, and it looks as though two of its residents are flying above it.

Spring Greens The nearest tree at least is sporting green leaves, though the ones on the field boundary to its left look rather bleak still. This field is on the southern side of Park Road out of Milton Bryan. The clump of trees to the rear right is part of Greatfield Spinney.
