The Ploughman's Nightmare

Image: © John S Turner Taken: 17 Jan 2007

A pile of discarded stones at the side of a ploughed field at Stryt-cae-rhedyn show what the farmers have to contend with in this area. Any large stone is capable of damaging or even breaking a ploughshare causing delay and expense. The footpath turns left over the stile and goes between Leeswood Hall and Leeswood Old Hall down to the B5444.
