Footpath to the pools by Comer Wood in Shropshire The fields to the left contain cereal crops. Looking at this image sixteen years later, it appears I went the wrong way and this is not the public footpath shown on the maps. That is parallel to this one, through the wood about fifty metres to the north.

Coniferous woodland near Quatford, Shropshire Looking south-east towards the pools by Comer Wood.
Although this part of the wood is coniferous, there are some areas which are more mixed in character.
