SK4941 : Farmland at Shortwood Farm, Trowell

near to Cossall, Nottinghamshire County, Great Britain

Farmland at Shortwood Farm, Trowell
Farmland at Shortwood Farm, Trowell
This was taken looking eastwards from a bridle road between Cossall and Trowell. On the left of this gently undulating landscape is Oldmoor Wood. The M1 cuts through this farmland on the western edge of Nottingham and the constant thunder of the traffic disturbs the peace. Another small wood, Shortwood, used to be to the right of the path and I remember it from my schooldays but that is more than 40 years ago. Now most of the trees have gone and the farmland continues over the brow of the hill. The name is preserved though in the name of Shortwood Farm.
