Cyclists on the Biddulph Valley Way
A former railway line, the Biddulph Valley Way is very popular with cyclists, walkers and horse riders. It is also part of Sustran's National Cycle Route 55, although I don't think these two were following the full route because I met them going in the opposite direction 10 minutes later.

The old railway bridge
At one time traffic on Marsh Green Lane had to pass under the railway via the very low bridge on the left. When the railway was made redundant and turned into a public bridleway, instead of removing the bridge the road was diverted over the top.

Flowers of the Norway Maple (Acer platanoides)
This is a close-up of the flowers on the Norway Maple tree shown in Image Although not native to Britain, the Norway Maple has become common enough to be called naturalised- like its cousin the Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus).

Looking across the fields
Looking from Marsh Green Road over the fields towards Biddulph Brook, on a crisp and frosty November morning. From here the brook meanders its way down the valley to Congleton where it joins the River Dane. The houses in the background face onto Congleton Road.

Norway Maple (Acer platanoides)
The coppery-coloured young leaves help this Norway Maple to stand out from the green Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) leaves behind it. Although not native to Britain, the Norway Maple has become common enough to be called naturalised- like its cousin the Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus). For a detailed view see Image
