Enough


Even the most patient of regular walkers up here must have had enough of this by now. The one tree is some sort of gesture.


So many of the paths have been so churned up by the cows that you have to walk with your eyes down careful not to slip or stumble.  Not to mention this.


It's many years ago now that Blacka was valued as a place that had been left untouched by farming for many years and all the better for it. We warned that SWT's plans would make it worse. And so it has. I remember the appallingly naive arguments used: "There are cows and sheep all over the countryside, why shouldn't they be here?" And we had to spell it out. And they took no notice of course.
