Mausoleum walk...

 A few snaps from a gentle walk up to the mausoleum...

Lower Bush valley: enjoy while you can before posts and ugly steel wire for vines cover it all...

Enjoy the views while you can, before its "vined over".

As above.  Our old friends Vineyard Farms are after this land as well, I hear...

The Marshes, Cuxton...

These are the fields that run to the north of Station Road in Cuxton.  I had never had a look around there, so I climbed over the gate to indulge my curiosity.  The eastern end was living up to its name and was quite badly flooded...

This drone footage shows the extensive flooding of the fields in the area...

I guess this still won't stop developers building houses on it in a few years time...
