Break in dyke bounding Fairnybeds Wood north of Macks Mill This may have originated as a route for wild animals such as deer but the wool on the single strand of wire shows that sheep have been the main traffic recently.

Barley, Fawside My second attempt to get into NT6545, the first was when it was still unvisited, but I was stopped by growing crops. Now there is no longer an access restriction, the barley has been harvested and the neighbouring silage grass fields are being grazed.

September is the time to visit those awkward grid squares, but winter crops are becoming more and more popular, and the stubble can be ploughed soon after harvest, as is the usual practice in England.
