'In Hiding' by ajisaac

'In Hiding'

As I do quite a bit of travelling around the local villages I come across many scenes of 'rural deprivation', where the farming community & village people are struggling to keep going.

This may mean that they are 'forced' to abandon vehicles that they no longer can keep on the road etc.

Here in one of the side roads in the hamlet of Marston, near Worton, lie to 'abandoned' vehicles, gathering rust & being 'consumed' by nature.

Sometimes I wonder why they cannot be sold for scrap, or 'given' to someone who may take the time & care to run them.

The solution to this problem is obviously not as simple as that..hence these remain 'in hiding'
nice photo of some rural decay especially in B&W

Poignant shot and commentary. That must have something to do with how so many people voted in that referendum a few weeks ago.

@sketch2 Thank you for your comments. Indeed small farmers have suffered over the last few years & I believe many would have voted 'out'
