I think that you can see some of the peat mounds or preparatory scrapping around the plateau heath.

The boundary ditch is very clear from this angle going across above the cross roads.

The sweet chestnuts woods look small partly because they have no leaves, but also because it is not that long after the great storm.

The beeches avenue looks very closed in by pine trees, as does the stream up from the bridge.

The heath the other side of the bridge is possibly mowed, pretty well down to the stream banks.

You can see part of the strange square of darker heath at the very bottom centre of the photo.
