Rhinefeild Sandy's

I couldn't resist a wander through Rhinefield Sandy's enclosure 1809, an enclosure through which we used to walk frequently, although about 10 years ago it was fenced off, high deer prove fencing and deer proof gates made it inaccessible and off limits. Ten years of no deer or ponies grazing and no people, or at least infrequent interlopers, have allowed the enclosure to regenerate substantially and in some places the woodland under-story is now so dense as to be impenetrable. The main tracks through the woods remain reasonably for the most, stilled used sometimes by the forestry, though most of the secondary tracks and smaller paths have now all but disappeared. I don't know why the enclosure was deer fenced, it's usually done after an area has been clear felled and new saplings planted, although there's no evidence of this in Rhinefield Sandy'. It was nice to be alone in the woods, dappled Sun, the best kind of Sun, coming through the canopy brought the woodland alive. That said, I wasn't the only one who was looking for seclusion, as I was heading out I noticed a couple had just come over another gate.
