A rough track on the left of the picture leads to a tree lined plateau on top of this embankment and out of shot on the left is the vast ivy covered wall which forms the elevation for Great Horton Tesco car park. The slope to the right of the wall is strewn with litter through fly-tipping and at the base of the slope is the remains of a tall fence which was clearly once used to secure this site. Clearly this wasn't a success and besides myself, a number of young people use this route to return from football games in the park or generally as a quiet place. I am trying to cultivate patches of the site whilst retaining its wild nature (for which read, there is an enormous thorn tree growing in the middle of this site which is unlikely to be coming up anytime soon...).
