April 2012: From the Memorial into the woods

From the memorial, I took a walk into the woods and then came across the valley to the top of Amersham. Here are the photographs of that walk.

A view over the Amersham valley. But I resolutely turn my head and walk into the woods

The spring time flowers were ou

Yellow and white flowers.

Some were still sleeping.

The woods began at the edge of the field.

Lovely woods, they are just beautiful

Start walking down the pathways

Looking up, the trees are still a bit nekkid

But the undergrowth is still there.

Taking a left

Another peek up

Some houses visible at the edge of the woods

A long long path down

Some of the trees had ivy climbing them

Another view of the long path

Tree stumps

There is surprisingly little undergrowth

Hmmm, orange stuff?



Some builders taking a tea break

A moss covered stone

I come out in New Amersham and decide to pop in for a sandwich. Nice name for a funeral director

I love the name of the bookstore

The underground line stops here.

The walls can do with a bit of a scrub

I didnt realise bridges went on strikes…

Back into the woods, and this time taking the right hand side path

Bit more open woods this side

this tree has gone to meet its maker

A little hollow

Which path to take?

Bluebells all over the forest floor

See?

Keep on going down

Kate has been here. And so has DC. in 99?

Heading downwards…

Meeting a little denizen of the forest

I come out of the forest, here is the meadow

A fellow walker of the woods

A 180 degree view of what the stunning vista looks like.

I head down the path

The road to old Amersham

A bee enjoying itself in a dandelion.

Brilliant blue / purple flowers on the wall.

Looking back at the woods.

On the left











doing a 360….

The cemetery wall…

Nice shapes

Some of the graves

A boarded up door?

Walking down…



Roofs full of moss and ivy

 
Ivy growing wildly all over the place.

Next stop, the church.
