One on its knees My wife found this upsetting as did I, the sheep nearest was trying to get away with the rest of the flock when we noticed it was hobbling along on its front knees. We turned back rather than cause it more discomfort wondering what the problem was. Thing is who do you contact we had no clue who owned the sheep.

Downland arable north of Seven Barrows Taken on a showery evening, in rapidly changing light. The line of trees on the left marks the route of the road to Kingston Lisle; higher, on the right, is Hill Barn Clump. The stormy clouds hang over the crest of the downs and the Vale of the White Horse.

Stormy sky over the downs Photo taken about an hour before sunset on a showery day in early June. The lie-of-the-land may be undramatic and prairie-like, but you are quite high up here - the 190m contour runs right across the picture. The trees mark the alignment of the Lambourn-Kingston Lisle road.

Stormy sky over the crest of the downs The skyline here represents the crest of the escarpment that drops away to the Vale of the White Horse. On the right is Hill Barn Clump, which stands close to the Ridgeway (at a height of about 220m). Photo taken in raking light, about an hour before sunset in early June.

Site of a cross dyke beside the Lambourn Valley Way The OS map shows a cross dyke between the photographer and the wood on the horizon, but there was no obvious evidence of one, either when looking from this point or back from the wood.

Idlebush Barrow Probable Bronze Age burial tumulus, much reduced, and situated alongside the Lambourn Valley Way long distance path and between racehorse gallops. The mound is mentioned by Thomas Hughes and Edward Thomas. There is much speculation as to how the name came about, but no-one seems to know.
