Expedition

The expected meadow turned out to be allotments. These are small cultivated areas rented out to allotment holders who grow flowers, vegetables and fruit. Several of the zones had sheds for hens. This might be a very British tradition. I have not noticed this style of gardening on my travels abroad. Typically the allotment holders live in houses or flats with no garden.

The hashpoint was easily reached. A gate blocked vehicles but there was pedestrian access round the side. The main access path led close. The final destination was over a rabbit fence, about ten paces into an allotment, between rows of seedlings. My GPSr time zone had corrected itself and I was running about 8 minutes late.
