Shot taken about half an hour before sunset on a November afternoon. The tree to the left of the byway is also to be seen (from the opposite direction) in Dave Spicer's snowy contribution: Link

The name 'No Man's Land' is puzzling, but by no means unique. I know of a SU2517 : Nomansland, Hampshire - except that it turns out to be in Wiltshire (well, mostly Link ) , which goes a long way towards explaining the name. There are plenty of other No Man's Lands - even the quickest Geograph search turns up instances in Hertfordshire, Devon and Cornwall (and there's another one in Hampshire, near Winchester).
