Along the Broadmead Cut in November

Photo taken on November 11th, and for the moment the picture is still quite green. The leaning tree on the near bank is an alder (and a pretty typical specimen); on the far bank alders mingle with oaks.

Broadmead Cut in November: the view from the Tanyard Bridge

Looking downstream (north-east) from the bridge. TQ0256 : Broadmead Cut in March and TQ0256 : Broadmead Cut: view north-east from the Tanyard Bridge in early April were taken from much the same spot, but at times of year when the trees were leafless.

Farmland south of the Tannery site, November

The stubble in the foreground is the remains of a maize crop. I heard locally that this stretch of farmland is reckoned to be of poor quality. In the past there were gravel pits here, the present topsoil having been brought in from elsewhere.
