The drive to Strattenborough Castle Farm is lined with a wild mustard-type plant, which has been identified as warty-cabbage (Bunias orientalis) by Mick Crawley. It has an unpleasant fragrance. The mast on Fox Hill can be seen on the downs. The land to the right is in small scale vegetable production. To the left is a crop of barley.
