Byway to Berrington, so far so good...
A small stream to navigate at this point - it had been raining most of the day (and still was at the time of the photo).

Old and new at Cantlop Farm
By 'new', I'm referring to the barn on the right, which was built in the early 1980s by a local contractor. It's still new by comparison with the one on the left. There is a listed granary in this farmyard, but the same status is not afforded to this particular barn.
