Thank goodness for some frost, the air feels better.

ASDA sunset ☆ Buy none, get them all free.

This farmhouse and its distinctive stand of Sycamore trees is a local landmark that I can just see from the loft window of our house, but though there are footpaths that go right past it’s years since I’ve been there, and we heard from the farmer that these trees are likely to be pollarded soon as they are becoming dangerously top-heavy (40 years or so since last done he thinks). So during one of the rare spells of sunshine we’ve had recently we did a pleasantly wiggly circular walk there from home to photograph the farm with the trees before they change dramatically! The house is listed, “mid C18th, altered C19” and the adjacent late C18th three arched building was a “cart barn with granary over”; the round aperture in first floor is delightfully named a “pitching eye”. There are expansive views from the farmhouse across the Severn to the Welsh hills - and rainbows! Last two photos were taken on 35mm film in 2001; one from the loft window - you can just see the roof and Sycamores; the other looks towards our village across the farm in the snow. #farmbuildings #pitchingeye

Wassail wassail! The Green Man and a fine saucepan-bashing crowd banishing the evil spirits and welcoming the good ones at our Community Orchard yesterday. Here's to a good harvest!

Sire Johanne de Hauteville and his lion footstool greeted us at the start of this afternoon's outing in Chew Magna church, followed by special treat lunch at Pony & Trap with expansive views from our table, then a walk in sun and muddy fields beside the river Chew, badger sets, sunset over the lake (a little sooner than we anticipated!) and at the last turn of the path, the breathtaking full moon rising over the valley; blissful winter day.

Strange goings-on in #teasel seed heads 🤔
