A muddy walk with
ruins.
Tuesday 27th November

A few photos from our last walk. Dorothy likes
this walk because of the ruins!
The first ruin was just past a field of cows -
one of which Trevor said might be a bull. So Dorothy and I waded through
thick mud behind a hawthorn hedge at the far edge of the field until we reached
the remains of the old farmhouse.
Tim took this photo while I was trying to get a
close-up of the little alcove in the slate wall which looked like a very
small built-in cupboard! The remains of the horse mill are in the
foreground.
The second ruin behind a "Manx hedge" (sod bank
and hawthorns).
View across a field of turnips to
Peel.
A muddy walk along the railway line.
Some gulls enjoying their own private pool in one
of the fields alongside the railway line. At least someone was benefitting from
all the wet weather.
Tim noticed these cows huddled around their hay
in a field alongside Brack-a-Broom Lane. Lower slopes of Slieau Whallian in the
background and some impressive mud in the foreground.
