Life in Grampound Road is nice, it doesn’t have so many walks as we had in Perrancoombe or the easy access to a three mile beach, but in one year here I have fiends some thing I didn’t have in sex years in Perrancoombe.
My backyard is not my garden, it is a lane across the road from the Church, the lane as narrow and leads to a ‘right of access’ path through farmed fields; we keep to the path so there is a little loss to the farmer.
I can stand on the path and the village is out sight – round the corner, standing on the path I see a countryside of fields and farms; my pastoral Cornwall.

Our Methodist Church.

The start of the lane.

There are just a few houses on the lane, this is the first.
The bramble season is near now.

Now the metaled road ends now and so do the homes.

This is a ‘soft day’ it is what the Cornish call a damp day.

This little chap came by alone, his owner came mounted on a houres with a old slower friend.


Out of the cover of trees I could feel the soft day on my hands and face!

The Cornish Countryside.


Our ‘right of way’ and we must keep to the path.


This was as far I went as I was getting damp on this soft day, also look right and down; there is a small light gray patch .......

… there be Spiders …


Back on the way to home and coffee, but I noticed the horses in a field; and one was kind enough to look at my camera.
