We went down to the woods – Henbury Woods, near Buckfastleigh – on our way back from Cornwall on Wednesday and we were in for a big surprise, well, not such a big surprise – they were quite small panties actually. And after my previous finds in a remote quarry in Australia I really shouldn’t be surprised at all.

The river running through the woods is the River Dart, and there are some other shots of the surrounding area for your interest… It is very much horse country these days, as we found – at nearly every turn of the road.
