    Found out there were some fields up for sale last week by sealed tender. Just outside the town, but with no public footpaths and totally secluded in a valley with a river on one side.

            Is an application for planning permission to build a dwelling on the distant horizon by any chance ?

              Not sure yet, it's a bit shallow, but there might be a few Trout about :fishing:

                Looks a delightful spot in Summer but I'm getting an impression of possibly flooded for part of the Winter/Spring - judging by some of the fauna?

                      Only seen it twice Strongy, bit of a mad rush.

                      River down one side, no unusual plants, just a paddock that has overgrown.
