Ferny revealed

Hidden within the modern coniferous spread of Markway enclosure was Ferny Knapp enclosure, 1843. The harvesting of Markway's conifer wood is revealing what remains of the older enclosure. Now free again, Ferny Knapp has returned to a woodland island surrounded by wet heathland. A nice spot. The forest is always changing shape, putting on new faces and renewing itself. That's why it can sometimes be hard to recognize the places you visited as a child, things can change that much.
