This week the Downs above Blewbury, not many photos as this was not the main place I wanted to go its at the top of Woodway road and was probably not my best idea in driving all the way up as I felt the car ground out not that I was going very fast but I checked when I stopped and nothing looked amiss
This is the end of the road I went up, carry on walking along the track and you will come to a place called Lowbury Hill
Had to wonder what this was in front of the gallops but it hold the huge cutting blades of a combine harvester. Mow a days they take them off and tow the thing, I remember as a kid them driving a harvester along the roads and the cutter only took up a small part
I saw the tractor coming up the road after taking my last photo so waited till he went past but he stopped and mentioned I should not be parked here as there are race horses coming up the road. I said I was just going and waiting for him to go. I think he spotted me driving up and came to see what I was doing. The yellow blob you see is the harvester cutting the field
