Winter-sown crop, Tadpole Lane, near Swindon (2)
This is another view of the field seen here
Image I suspect that the crop is a cereal of some sort, probably wheat. The car is, or was, a 2007 Renault Megane, the impressively ugly one with the misshapen rear end.

Winter-sown crop, Tadpole Lane, near Swindon (1)
The crop is seen over a recently trimmed hedge. The farmer has left a margin around the edge of the field which, perhaps, will have a good growth of wild flowers in the summer. It is too early to identify the crop at the moment. There is another view of the field here
Image The car is, or was, a 2007 Renault Megane, the impressively ugly one with the misshapen rear end promoted by an ad with the soundtrack 'I see you Baby'. Easy enough to find on youtube.

View north from the Swindon and Cricklade Railway towards Blunsdon Station near Haydon Wick
The houses in view are fairly new. Those nearest the camera aren't on aerial photos yet. The ones beyond are and are in Minnow Close south of Tadpole Lane. This and other pictures of mine from today were taken at a Steam and Vintage rally at the heritage railway.
