The Yapton/Ford parish boundary ditch

Along part of this old parish boundary ditch which holds water in parts long enough for frogs at present and formerly newts to breed successfully, there grows these majestic poplars. At the time this photo was taken the delicate leaves which are almost white on their back surface had emerged and provided a fine contrast to the dark slightly ominous sky. The public footpath follows the ditch at this point.
