I love the stretch of open, mainly birch, woodland that borders Rhinefield Sandy's along the low ridge above Ober Water; I've watched it grow and develop...it's the only part accessible of an old roam. Rhinefield Sandy's used to be a regular walk of ours, and a much loved one, it's where our eldest said his first word...tree. Though for over 20 years now it's been inaccessible, surrounded by 8ft deer fencing and locked gates as part of some forest project I suspect. The woodland fringe's position overlooking the river and good cover makes it a great spot to watch deer from, especially of an evening when they gather to drink. As I pass I often wonder when the deer fencing will come down and our roam restored.
