Autumn Wildwood

On the drive from Leeds to Bristol, I broke my journey at Sheffield to visit my fairly recently removed friend, Julie and her miniature Schnauzer, Freddie.  

It was another bright afternoon so we went for a walk in Ecclesall Woods, a remnant of ancient wildwood near her home.

Sweet chestnut tree

Splatches of remembered colour for the long queues on the A42.
