March 2012: What Diya saw up on the hill?

We went for a nice little walk up near Old Redding Way.

Photobucket

Parked the car and came across a pub

Photobucket

The main entrance seems to be a bit around the way

Photobucket

Lovely pub, I have been here several times for a bite to eat.

Photobucket

Great name, eh? the case is altered, lol

Photobucket

With the sign up on the tree

Photobucket

And then there is a skip..all the way from Punjab…lol

Photobucket

A tree has been cut down..

Photobucket

We enter the Copse Farm

Photobucket

Start walking down the roat

Photobucket

Scrubby grasslands

Photobucket

Birds flying around

Photobucket

A hint of mist in the valleys

Photobucket

The white cottage, 18th century…

Photobucket

Looks brilliant, no?

Photobucket

Keeping on walking into the farm

Photobucket

the view over the valley

Photobucket

A rather dilapidated farm…

Photobucket

Its falling down…

Photobucket

The roof tiles are manky

Photobucket

With the end tiles all slipping off

Photobucket

Yep, its in real danger of collapsing

Photobucket

Drunkenly leaning picket fences

Photobucket

Hmmm, ok, i will avoid them then..

Photobucket

The backend of the barn

PhotobucketPhotobucket

Really looking very dangerous

Photobucket

Some ugly trees

Photobucket

Some of the bark has been removed

Photobucket

We keep walking down the footpath

Photobucket

We saw a squirrel…..

Photobucket

Down the path we go

Photobucket

London, well, west London to be precise.

Photobucket

This tree is going to take a tumble any time now..

Photobucket

The sloping meadow goes down and then meets Harrow…

Photobucket

Very strange tree there.



Photobucket

Photobucket

Fences, presumably this is the horse farm…

Photobucket

Green and browns, life amongst the dead

Photobucket

Eroded away

Photobucket

Photobucket

Lovely, stark white tree..

Photobucket

Gosh, Baba is SOOOO slow….

Photobucket

We explored a little log…

Looking back up the hill

Trot trot

More trot trot

Photobucket

What a lovely gnarled trunk

Photobucket

Its a green tree

Photobucket

Nice skin

Photobucket

Big huge leaves

Photobucket

Striding away

Photobucket

What is that?

Photobucket

Photobucket

Peeking closer

Photobucket

Its a tree which has fallen across the little stream and is like a bridge

Photobucket

The funny looking trees

Photobucket

Now heading back

Photobucket

I am a little monkey

Photobucket

dry grass

Photobucket

I love this white branch

It seems to be brightening up

This tree really was in the wars, the bark has been stripped away

Lovely little cottages
