Under Win Green is just what it says, the area under Win Green Hill. An area marked by steep rough grass slopes which disappear into deciduously wooded combes with meadows running through their bottoms; bloody lovely. I've said it before, chalk-land is surely my favourite landscape, so rich in life; it crackles with energy. Wherever you look there are useful herb plants, fruiting trees and so many useful materials. Mammals too, Hares are common as are the Deer, the Fox and Badger, signs of which can be spotted if one cares to look a bit deeper; wander from the path maybe. And that's only few of the species of life which call this place home. Everywhere you look is bustling with activity. On reaching the end of the path in the photo, you emerge from the woodland on top of a high chalk grassland ridge which continues for miles in each direction and views, man, the views. I don't know how many counties I see, but it was a few. Great walking. It's a landscape to loose yourself in and find yourself all the better for it.
