The cutting

Just back from a walk with friend Ellie who has shown me a new and gnarly wood in Leeds. Lots of interest. Twisted oak trees, an old POW camp and this passage through called the cutting. It was built in 1856 to allow passage from Apperley Bridge to Calverley but apparently wasn't popular. I can see why, its quite spooky. Very happy to have found a new feral wood. Just need some fog...

Cool to be finding new places still. I keep thinking I’ll work my way round more colleges now that I don’t have a dog in tow (sob) - they may open again in 2022....

Interesting trail, that’s a lot of blasting! Looking forward to your fog pics.

A brilliant cutting & all cuttings should be creepy! Love your friend at the other end for scale. Fave.

@happypat that's a stranger not my friend. Friends don't pose very willingly!

Ditto Wylie, I would not have understood the scale of this without your friend there. Really nice!

[Leli]

Would love this walk. I must visit Leeds at least once more and visit the sites you are capturing so well.

A spooky cool shot. It looks like an interesting place to walk, and those cliff walls look massive.
