Poppies at Ranscombe...

Partly by accident and a lot by design, Ranscombe is currently ablaze with wildflowers thanks to the partnership between Plantlife and local farmer Mr. Lingham... 

Longhoes...

Longhoes has its fair share of wildflowers this year. Some self-seeded poppies from last year's show have combined with the Vipers Bugloss and chamomile to give a red, white and blue display quite in keeping with the recent Jubilee celebrations...

Going up the hill from Longhoes and back around past Ranscombe Farm gives the usual glorious views across the valley from the track that runs back down to Southern valley between Tuggs Field and Barn Field...

View across Tuggs Field towards Upper Bush...

The view from the gate at the top of Southern Valley has been rendered even more colourful by the poppies this season...

View across Nether Bottoms and Little Bottoms towards the "crossroads"...



The main bloom of poppies is just starting to finish, so catch them while you can...
