what a place to work!

The woodland of conifers is over 100 years old, originally oak, felled for ships, a natural cathedral.

1170 feet above sea level, Rodney's pillar, (more info on Admiral Rodney), is a high plateau with the most amazing 360 views, I was gobsmacked, I don’t remember seeing such a view!

Liverpool docks 50 miles away, Snowdon 50 miles, just incredible!

I haven’t blogged the whole panorama, just some of the pics of Tom and the land that he is working

I had a lovely day out, Tom showed me his work and the land & wildlife, it was fantastic being in the wilds rather than the manicured/twee Cotswolds, I wish that I could have stayed for longer.

    Hi Louise, he hasn't finished college yet, he has another year to go, and then he will still only be 17 1/2, and he has already been offered two jobs.
