Ebbor Gorge

My daughter was visiting for the weekend; we went to Ebbor Gorge in the Mendip Hills for a walk. It is now a nature reserve protected by English Nature, there are three trails through the woodland, one of them goes up through the limestone gorge, we didn’t take that route as our dog is not very good at rock climbing! Neolithic people occupied some of the caves in the area. It is a very peaceful place, when we came out of the woods we saw a deer standing in the pathway, unfortunately I had put my camera away. I used to take my dog there frequently when I was much younger, in those days there were not the steps and paths that are there now, I am not sure which I prefer. I will have to dig out some photos that I took back in the 70’s.

My Views - Going home

After seeing Sonia's landscapes on her blog 'Leaves of Grass' - views of her journey home and the beautiful views on Alice's blog, I decided not to rush home from work today and go via the country lanes and take some photographs. Driving down the lanes instead of the main road was a less stressful drive.
