A walk to Luddesdown to see if anything is actually growing in the new "vineyard"...

Nearly two years on and the patches of bare chalk dredged up by the deep ploughing still look sterile, with not even vines growing in some areas. It may be a bit early given the cold spring, but the vines look stunted or otherwise just absent. It certainly doesn't look like a vineyard that will be yielding a substantial crop of grapes next year, as originally promised...

Towards Cuxton from the edge of Red Wood, looking east. Enjoy before it gets "vined over"... |
