It was at this point, we realised we had taken a wrong turn. However, my visual super-powers detected the gate at the bottom left of this field that we needed to reach. The path from the lane to this locked gate had been arduous so we really didn’t want to climb back up through it, so we were naughty and clambered over the gate and hugged the hedge down the field to get back on track.
Lovely rural landscape beautifully capture Lesley, you did the right thing going along the hedgerow through the field, I'm sure the farmer would understand your dilemma:)
