Yesterday's walk

[cmcmck]

We took a further walk yesterday out to Limekiln Woods and Huntington as we'd discovered a path we'd never walked so thought we'd add it to the local knowledge.

Rowanberries and birch in Limekiln Woods. We get a lot of the hill loving species locally:

More foxgloves going to seed:



Huntington Woods and a big sky!



This is the said unexplored path which goes from the edge of Limekiln Woods to the dew pond at Huntington:



And has quite a nice view of the Wrekin on top of which we were the other day.



Some blooms:



Old coppice on the edge of the Wrekin Forest:



And some rather splendid fungi in the same area:



And a tangle in Black Hayes woodland.



We walked home via the Little Wenlock Road.  About nine miles in all.

Have a good weekend, all.

I'm glad!

We have really needed these walks.

I love the photo of the path! I want to walk along it in that lovely green and lush landscape!

Lovely photo of the old coppice and of those tangled stems/roots!

Surprisingly it was an industrial landscape (mining) until the early 21st century so this shows just how quickly things can recover
