Late-flowering oilseed rape and a few sheep, south of Easton Royal I was not sure this small strip of rape would be worth the trouble however David Hawgood suggests it may have been grown as ground cover for game birds. This seems plausible as there is a pheasant rearing coop nearby. The trees in the middle of the image are in this square as are the sheep. The trees on the skyline form Easton Clump in the next square east.
