Farmland Copse

This is a pretty little copse which breaks up the monotony of the flat Holderness Plain farmland.

Zig Zags from the Air

Farmland, in various locations in the Holderness area of East Yorkshire, has been suffering from severe flooding in places in the last couple of months. Fortunately, this land seems to be fairly unscathed. It's about 15 metres above sea level and even at this modest height seems to have escaped the worst consequences of the rain.

Footpath to Lelley

The footpath is quite 'hilly' for this part of the very flat Holderness plain! The field on the left is a wheatfield, but appears to be contaminated with last year's barley crop.

New Crop

I've no idea what the new crop in the field is as it was too far away to see. Peas perhaps? The windmill in the background is near Elstronwick nearly a mile away.

Small Pond east of Sproatley

The pond is situated near to the Sproatley to Lelley path.

The Derelict Mill near Elstronwick

The sail-less derelict windmill continues to relentlessly decay. The newly-flowered rapeseed has taken a lot longer than normal to reach this stage - presumably due to the cold weather we've had of late.

Elstronwick cattle

Large bull, thankfully of apparently placid temperament (though I didn't test it) with several cows and calves in a field next to the mill

Old mill, Elstronwick

In the relatively featureless and generally flat local landscape, this derelict windmill is a clearly visible landmark for miles around

Derelict mill, Elstronwick

In the relatively featureless and generally flat local landscape, this derelict windmill is a clearly visible landmark for miles around. Seen from the public bridleway which crosses an adjacent field containing cows, calves and a large bull.

Power through the Field

An 11,000V power line carries power over the fertile farmland of South Holderness. The rapeseed crop has finally fully blossomed after weeks of colder than normal weather.
