Down on the trail is all a bit boggy and swampy!

The dog wood has a root system akin to mangrove swamps!

Boggy bit challenge

This is the drain off ‘sink’ for the goodie burn which is 100m to the left so the only way to go is up

yew tree

Great to see this old yew tree next to the tennis court get some breathing space
