Misty Holmhill

This spooky scene wasn't created by rolling mists nor was it taken it early morning or at twilight, rather the smoke from huge fires, the result of timber harvesting and clearance. A section of Holmhill enclosure, first created in 1681, is being cleared of a much later crop of mature coniferous trees; felled, stripped and stacked on the track side the bare trunks ready for removal.
