The Harton triangle

Dodgy part of the county… No, I’m not aware of a tendency for unexplained disappearances around here, though it is rather quiet (spooky, I suspect, after dark), and very pleasant too beneath the wooded Wenlock Edge. One or two cars passed on the wider lane from Ticklerton to Harton, but the other two sides of the triangle, Harton – Eaton – Ticklerton (see the map below), were almost deserted. We paused to look at the birds at Newhall farm – “come in and have a closer look”, said the friendly lady on her way to feed them. The eagle owl promptly hid when it saw us, but peeped out briefly to see if we were still there. Peacocks, of course, are not so shy…
