The farmer has been ploughing the field alongside Masefield Crescent. A strip remains but that may still go under the plough.
Large clods of earth stand out along the rise towards Masefield play park.
The field at the back of Overmead has also been ploughed, but the soil here, although only a few hundred metres from the first pictures, seems far more friable.
behind Masefield it's Gault Clay with gravel cap; behind Overmead it's river terrace gravel.. good plug for my Geology and local scenery for U3A at Preston Rd. on23rd Feb. DV!
