View to Upper Barn and The Hermitage

View to the wooded Nupton Hill with Upper Barn and The Hermitage nestling below, the latter can be seen to the right, just within the lengthening shadows of a winters afternoon's sun. The marked diversion in the grassland in the field is a result of strip grazing where the farmer uses an electric fence which is moved back a little each day. This technique is to prevent livestock gorging itself on too much grass which can cause problems such as bloating which can be fatal, the grass ferments in the stomach causing a build up of gas. The use of an electric fence can be seen in Jonathan Billinger's SO4746 : Shades of green grass just eight days earlier.
