looks pretty wet with puddles at the bottom of the scrape
The paths looks as if they have been mown
The top two heaths either side of the path, have been recently scraped, with the arisings placed up against the chestnut copse. There is some scrapping towards west pond.
You can see the different vegetation across the cricket field, with the OL2 part more heavily grazed. Were there sheep here?
The chestnut copse looks remarkably thin, with few trees. It has not recovered yet from the great storm.
The M1 is tree lined and narrow. there are trees on the bank, which was formed when the M1 fire-break was created?
Cricket wood appears very dense.
The boundary ditch parallel with beeches avenue is obvious, though very covered in dead bracken. The ditches either side are visible.
