Today I set off on my cycle to work a little earlier so that I could use a much more pleasant and nature friendly route. I took photos along the way:
 |
| Embankment mown only a few times a year. Plants include buttercup, yarrow, ox-eye daisy, knapweed, clover and even fennel. |
 |
| Meadway, an old road, now free of motor traffic. |
 |
| Further along, evidence of long ceased hedge-laying. |
 |
Symonds Green Common. The west side, adjacent to the
pub, is kept closely mown. West of the road the grass
grows long and is a haunt of crickets and grasshoppers.
|
 |
Two ponds on the common. They flanked the
entrance road to now demolished farm buildings. |
 |
| Symonds Green Common. |
The lane continues, joining Hitchin Road at Coreys Mill.
