All of Bush Farm, including Bush Valley and all of the SSSI woodlands right the way over the hill to Pilgrims Road in Halling, have now been acquired by Vineyard Farms Ltd - the same company that has been busy transforming Luddesdown valley into a sterile desert, allegedly for vinicultural purposes.

So enjoy these views while you can...
