Looking along Arrowsmith Road, really just a twisty country lane but much used as a cut-through between Gravel Hill and Magna Road, and vice versa, making it something of a rat-run for which it was not designed. In fact, I will admit to leaning out of the car window to take this picture: given the distance from here that I could safely park, I was not about to take a walk of any length along here! The little postbox, which is catching a bit of the late evening sun despite the thickness of vegetation on the left, is emptied each morning – except Sundays – at 10 o'clock.
