taken 17 years ago, near to Higher Town, Isles of Scilly, England
Lawrence's Bay, St. Martin's
Looking north west diagonally across the grid square from the hill behind New Quay. Commercial flower growing remains a major "industry" in the Scilly Isles but on St. Martin's in particular wind-blown sand can cut the blooms to shreds. The hedges are intended to protect the fields and to provide a windbreak against windblown sand.
