Highgateclose is a farm below the moorland at the northern end of the Helvellyn range of mountains. Silage is wrapped in plastic sheeting which originally came only in black. Other colours have become available.... various greens, white and then pink (for which a premium price is paid with a contribution going to breast cancer research). A new colour in 2016 - at least new to the photographer - has been purple.
