High Summer



Plant life is at its most effusive in late July with the pushiest species overpowering the more demure. Bracken is vulgar and brassy determined to make the most of the time available before it's squashed by colder nights.

The woodland near Hathersage Road is some of the best for miles around - a pity that the road noise is always present.

Greenery is everywhere and even in the middle of a dry spell you can end your morning's walk with wet clothing caused by a heavy dew.
