Imminent Collapse The old farm building near New York will soon reach a critical stage - the lower window lintels will collapse in the next year or so and probably most of the brickwork above that.... and finally the roof.

Footpath to Lelley The footpath is quite &#039;hilly&#039; 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&#039;s barley crop.

New Crop I&#039;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.

New Lake Not on any map yet, this is a lovely spot to be on an early June sunny evening Note: I contacted the Ordnance Survey in July 2015 about the map error. They have noted it and the lake will be on the next revisions of both the 25,000 and 50,000 maps!

Sunset in a Drafty Loft The old farmhouse is a little damp inside at times, and will no longer be standing soon at its present rate of decline.

Photogenic Farmhouse I&#039;ve visited this remote derelict farmhouse several times and it always amazes me how different it looks under varying lighting conditions. The intense blue, red, green and yellow struck me with this one!

Nearly all Wheat This year&#039;s wheat crop seems to be &#039;contaminated&#039; with residual barley from last year&#039;s crop. Taken against the sun, the barley ears are identified easily against the majority wheat crop.
