Stroll – Carr Lane, Crow Nest Wood

It had been raining or drizzly all day and I’d been stuck indoors and feeling as though the sides of the valley were closing in on me. It’s what happens here at this time of year when we get the gloomy weather. What can be a really pretty little valley starts to feel a bit [...]
