• A stroll up Bearah, plus monument

On a familiar stroll up to Bearah Tor, I passed the fairy grove of oak trees, the early stages of what will be a pointy monument at Hayling Island in Hampshire (to be dedicated to the heroes of COPP – Combined Operations Pilotage Parties – during World War II) and on up to the small, long-disused upper quarry that is now filled with water.
