The Mains is in the distance, close by the side of the unclassified road. The fence on the left has netting to keep sheep in, and barbed wire to keep cattle in. Sheep will readily wriggle through between strands of wire, even barbed, and frisky young cattle may try to jump over if the top wire is not high enough to make them think again. Not that any fencing is needed this year, because the field has been sown with a spring cereal.
