An Afternoon Stroll...

Wednesday 23rd April

Another sunny day which got progressively warmer as the hours ticked by. Decided not to venture too far, so drove to Little Eaton and parked behind the playing field. I was hoping for some blossom pics, but what I found was much more exciting. As you drive from Little Eaton to Duffield all you are aware of is the narrowness of the road and the need to keep a sharp look out for any other car that is attempting to share it with you. Luckily there is a footpath and just where the road narrows down to nothing I found a sign for a footpath.

Dipping down the bank, it passes by the chimney of a long gone mill. Passing on further there is a beautiful view of houses appearing to be perched on the bank. The angle belies that fact that they are inches away from the narrow road, but so picturesque...
