Another of our local walks today, one that we have done many times but never tire of.

Eaves Wood car park was surprisingly empty when we arrived

The start of the path to the "Pepperpot"

I'm not sure of the history of this small cottage in the woods. It had three small rooms and an outhouse.

Nearly there!

Walking back to the car along field paths

Eaves Wood

I've long admired this residence, only a lottery win stops me making an offer

And finally......back to a still nearly empty car park.
