Modern farm machinery, hydraulic trailer for 10 bales
For those who wonder why large straw bales are stacked 5 high in the harvested fields this is the answer. The empty trailer is put upright it has two large prongs at the back which like a forklift truck go under the stack of bales in the field, tip slightly till the bales are resting on the trailer, then lower trailer to road worthy position and take to farm or stackyard, lift again and when steady move forward and extract prongs and off for another load

Evidence of ancient agriculture in this field to the west of Birdsall. Maybe this was once one of the village's open fields.

Footpath near Birdsall
The footpath contours along the bottom of the hill and heads towards Burythorpe, but cannot be recommended due to some very wet patches and plenty of muddy ploughed fields.
