The Mill at Lewenshope

The Mill is a beautifully converted former water mill and now available for holiday rent (I'm a happy customer - not the owner!).

On the Duchess's Drive, Bowhill

This pleasant 7.5 mile walk follows the route of a Victorian carriage drive. Underfoot conditions are excellent, on good tracks and paths. There is good waymarking too.

A low level RAF Hercules in the Yarrow Valley

There was a low flying slot between 19.00 and 21.00 and I was lucky enough to catch at 20.45 in lovely evening light Hercules ZH867 from Tinnis Top. The building at the lower right is at Wester Kershope Farm. This was my last low level Hercules as the RAF will retire this aircraft type at the end of June 2023. A farewell flypast tour of the UK with a three-ship of Hercules aircraft was held on 14/06/2023.
