Below are two modern barns that now occupy part of the disused Bo Peep Chalk Pit, beyond that are two fields that marked on the 1:25000 map as being woods though neither Yeakell & gardner's map of 1778 or the first OS map of 1813 have any woods marked either. Saying that Tilton Wood was not marked on either and its rectangular shape suggests it's a recent addition. Beyond that the morning mist is beginning to clear enabling the first view of Arlington Reservoir today.
