Modest showing - maybe half a dozen - anglers at the small stew pond.
About as many dogs, with one black and white spotted animal almost as large as the young lady who was jogging along with it.
No sign of cows and no sign of chain saw activity. But I got pleased a little too soon as it turned out that the Chain Saw Volunteers had been out, cutting back some brush to the right of the stretch of path which heads northeast, above the railway, from gmaps 51.322582, -0.293570. They had also made a bit of a mess cutting back a middle sized tree.
But there was some positive, balancing activity. There has been some work on or around the railway cutting to the right as you head down Wheelers Lane towards Epsom, and these volunteers, presumably for Spencer, have made good the hole they had made in the hedgerow in order to get access to the bank of the cutting. All carefully fenced in, as illustrated, and we will see if the new planting survives the depredations of local youth.
