About

A diverse range of flowers are easily found close to the road side in various fallow and cropped areas. Also walk along the track to Drimsdale for more variety and the localised Rest Harrow. Most colourful and diverse in July and early August. In July also look for Great Yellow Bumblebee and Colletes floralis.
