Path onto Whipsnade Heath

Although mostly secondary woodland, there is a pleasant open area with a picnic table.

Woodland, Whipsnade Heath

Most of the heath is now this sort of woodland.

Isle of Wight Lane

Presumably named after Isle of Wight Farm - rather short of a full explanation!

Over the fields towards Buckwood Lane.

Near the road this land has been used for horses. Here it seems to be plain old meadow.

Robin Hall

Holywell

Large houses in a relatively modern estate in a relatively modern village. From what I could see this village lacks most of the things that define a village, pub church, shop, cricket pitch. Ah nostalgia ain't what it used to be.

Kensworth chalk quarry

Actually, this spreads across four squares. This is the area used for processing I think.

Hollick's Lane, Kensworth

This lane leads from the main part of Kensworth Village to the church (Church End). The lane first drops down a fairly steep hill then rises up again - this is looking down into the dip. It's a very narrow lane without many passing places, so I'm glad I met nothing coming the other way.

Grange Farm, Kensworth

On the 1:25000 map only Churchend Farm is mentioned, but there are in fact two farms here it would seem, the aforementioned Churchend Farm and the one pictured here, Grange Farm. They both just sneak into the extreme southeast corner of the gridsquare.

St. Mary the Virgin, Kensworth

The lovely parish church of St.Mary the Virgin is at Church End in Kensworth quite a little way from the main part of Kensworth village. It is a very tranquil and beautiful spot, quite a contrast to the busy road through the main part of the village.

The Vicarage, Kensworth

A good half mile from TL0319 : St. Mary the Virgin, Kensworth, down Spratts Lane is the vicarage. It is a substantial victorian building in wooded grounds.
