Belladown Hill

Looking down the B3232 as it swoops across the valley of a headwater of Langham Lake and up to Newton Cross. The cluster of buildings along the ridge are on the lane from Newton Cross to Pristacott. The small building out in front of them is the telephone exchange.

St Thomas a Becket church, Newton Tracey

"A modest church with several C13 windows" (Cherry and Pevsner). Seen across the churchyard.

Belladown Hill

Roughly a reverse view of SS5227 : Belladown Hill, taken across the valley from beside the telephone exchange on the far hill (although the building on the left is beside the exchange). This was taken about 35 minutes later, so the sun has disappeared from the field in the foreground. The B3232 climbs on the left. The buildings at the top of the hill (Belladown House and Tennacott House) are across the gridline in SS5228.

Bartridge Common

Looking across the valley south of Newton Tracey from the path to SS5226 : St Thomas a Becket church, Newton Tracey. The common is shown on the maps as the area between the wooded valley and the main valley behind the tree. On the left, Bartridge Hill (the B3232) climbs towards Alverdiscott church. The cottage on the right is on the southeast edge of Newton Tracey village.

Path to church, Newton Tracey

This 45-metre path leads from the Pristacott lane out of the village, to SS5226 : Churchyard, Newton Tracey. SS5226 : Field at Newton Tracey was taken from a few yards along, looking right.

Field at Newton Tracey

On the left is the lane to Pristacott. Horwood, Lovacott and Newton Tracey Footpath 7 (a mouthful of a parish name) runs down the far side of the hedge ahead to cross the valley to Kennacott.
