Footpath through the barley A well defined footpath kept clear by the farmer.  It's a pleasure to find cross-field paths like this.  This is heading west from Hazleton towards Cherington.

What would you like to plant here? I thought this field has just been prepared.  But compare Philip Halling's photo taken at the same location in January.  It was ready then.  From the western edge of the square looking south east.
