A very boring scene, but, unfortunately, this is the only publicly accessible part of the square. Taken at MR: TA30942557 looking in a WNW direction.

Burgany Plantation, Winestead

On the parish boundary between Patrington and Rimswell, and not the most inspiring bit of landscape you'll ever see. Best I could do was to frame the top of Rimswell Water Tower (see TA3027 : Rimswell Water Tower) in the gap between Burgany Plantation on the left and the field boundary on the right as a point of reference.

Chantry Lane - the road to Rimswell

Taken at the junction where the road goes off to Frodingham Hall (although this part of the sign appears to be missing!). The water tower at Rimswell can just be seen in the distance.

Footpath near Ottringham

The Rail trail between Hull and Winestead here crosses a farm track - there was a pile of apples beside it, which presumably someone had foraged from the hedgerows and was going to return for later.
