semw52's video: Dolebury Hillfort Rowberrow Warren Walk Part IV Into the Warren by Sheila May 8th 2024

@Dolebury Hillfort & Rowberrow Warren Walk, Part IV, 'Into the Warren' by Sheila, May 8th 2024
A gradual uphill climb thru the Warren following the main tracks today.On other walks I have meandered thru the tall trees following little pathways but today I decided to stay on the broader tracks. Beautiful trees in Rowberrow Warren with a mix of formal tall pine trees, Xmas trees and the miscellaneous species on display in abundance.The Warren was once a surface mining area for lead 100-200 years ago and much earlier in history hence the Miners Arms pub at Shipham, the village where many miners lived and I have a 3rd cousin called Barbara who has ancestors from the area ...I have carried out quite a lot of family tree research for her and her family who live in Canada after the family emigrated in the late 19th c..from the UK.So the area has a special place because I discovered the Warren and the villages of Shipham and Rowberrow during one of those family tree trips about 15 years ago and still have my early basic videos created from that time--some to be found on YT... My walk progresses in the warm sunshine and is such a blessing after a prolonged dull, grey and wet Winter....Spring adds the colour and the blue skies help the photography.I really do love the peace here but aware of its noisy and polluted history but now the tall trees cover the scarred landscape and it has been opened up for walkers, horse-riders and mountain bikers with some designated tracks thru the trees for serious bikers with maps to assess levels of skill. Plant and animal life thrive here with an abundance of fauna and flora finding it a perfect ecological habitat. Remembering that a stream below provides a good source of water for life.
