|
The oldest bridge across the A14 linking Twywell with Woodford - won by Ramblers after a long campaign |
|
|
The footpath in this field - linking the footbridge with the old main road - is rarely restored |
|
|
The Burton Wold windfarm. The windmills achieved 16% capacity in their first season. The builders had hoped for 20%. The government target is 30%. They are hardly worth building in this low windspeed part of the country. |
Morning Walk from Isham 30 July 2006
 |
Leaving The Lilacs. The pub sign is not a lilac bush but a lilac rabbit |
 |
The unofficialy diverted path from Isham to the main road |
 |
Frisby Lane. The bottom end of the lane will be lost to the proposed Isham bypass. Ramblers are working to preserve the rest of it. |
 |
The path from Little Harrowden to Pytchley was obstructed by oil seed rape. The problem was reported several times to Northants County Council by Ramblers, including a strongly worded letter from the Northants RA Area Chairman, before it was cleared. |
