Figs

 

A good first crop of figs. I have three fig trees on the plot, all grown from small plants from a home wares shop. The largest is now over 6 feet tall and gives the most fruit, the other two are catching up. Figs are supposed to be grown with restricted roots to encourage fruit but these seem to do well as free range trees. The branches are starting to get crowded and will need a pruning after the crop is done.

Cycling Survey

This is a test run for a survey to assess local cycling demand; feel free to try it out, especially if you live in mid-Wiltshire. This will be pulled out and relaunched elsewhere after testing. 

 

Update........... the test survey has now been stood down. Thank you if you tried it out, this was a new venture and I'm pleased with how it is working so far.

Courgettes

Most of the plot is grass. The other bit has a few vegetables: today was a good day for courgettes.

Dragonfly.


This dragonfly flew past me when cycling by. It waited on a bush while I took a photograph.

Alton Barnes Airfield.


Alton Barnes was a wartime airfield although originally established as a relief landing ground in 1935. The remaining buildings are some gun posts, an air raid shelter and this building which housed the Link Trainer.
