Malvern hill paths emphasise the contours - Great Malvern, Worcestershire
A hazy day on the Malvern Hills in April 1972. Facing southwards, to the east is the town of Great Malvern. The small isolated building nestling in a fold of the hills is St Ann's Well. This takes me back to those bygone days of yore. A bus, the Midland Red 144 service, from Birmingham to Great Malvern. Lunch at the St Ann's Well Cafe and tea there on the return leg from British Camp. Time photo taken not available. Thanks are due to Silverwhiskers for locating this one by way of Speculative Uploads and wheresthepath.
