This old pasture field comes complete with an old redundant hedgeline. It is the site of a medieval village, one of two in Fulstow. See http://www.pastscape.org.uk/hob.aspx?hob_id=1066845&sort=4&search=all&criteria=Fulstow&rational=q&recordsperpage=10#aRt For aerial shot see Image The storm lighting is connected with a low pressure system, high winds and showers. The colourful "beast", as they are known around here, in their atmospheric and pastoral setting reminded me of a Gainsborough painting.
