Bluebells in the Grove In a few years you will not be able to see the bluebells from Park Road. This is because there is a newly planted hedge that will obscure the view. However, it won&#039;t block the heady scent. — Bluebells in the Grove Credit: Glyn Baker

River Box Ford

This ford on the River Box is found beside Valley Farm. We were fortunate to come across a young badger as we ascended the bridleway beyond the pig farm at Rams Farm.

Roadside unattended jam stall, Stoke by Nayland

Do retail outlets get any smaller? Outside a house in the narrow lane of Scotland Street, Stoke by Nayland, were two chairs holding homemade jam and chutney. We put our £2 in the honesty box for a jar of chutney, and found it excellent. The labels from "Jam Today!" gave us an email address and phone number for ordering more.
