..........and more trees!

Harlestone Firs is a small wooded area close to the village of Harlestone and very close to where I live. At weekends particularly it is full of dog walkers and non-dog walkers of course and you can get lost by going of the beaten track.
It belongs to the Althorp Estate (home of the Spencer family) and they actively promote the use of the 300 acres for informal recreation – a facility that many thousands of people visit annually.

'In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they're still beautiful'
