Looking south from a field gate in Shillingstone Lane (actually, closer to Shillingstone than to the centre of Okeford) towards the chalk quarry on the northern side of Shillingstone Hill. The quarry is actually a kilometre or so south, in Image We are looking from the southeast corner of the gridsquare, such that only the foreground field, to a little beyond the fence, is within the square.
