Just another fallen tree But look closely at the patterns up the trunk. Almost as though a tattoo artist had been at work, but it's caused by ivy.

Renishaw: an overgrown footpath The fingerpost on the right points along a short path which cuts the corner of Spinkhill Lane and Station Road - but the path is weed-choked and impassable. The red-brick building is the former police station shown in <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7261500">SK4478 : Renishaw: up Station Road</a>.
