Cob House Fisheries - Robin On the edge of the fishing pond called Wyatts. Very often there are fishing competitions at the weekend and the public are kept out of this area. But not today - the lakes were largely frozen.

Trees near Kenswick Manor First impressions suggest the clump of trees on the left are on the site of a tumulus, I thought I could even see a standing stone.  A quick look at the OS map reveals nothing and then I look through my binoculars and realise what I think is a standing stone is the stump of a large felled dead tree.
