Church Brow Gardens
When I posted a photograph of this valley through which flows the Gower Hey Brook in January 2014 the bottom was flooded to quite a height.
When I walked by a couple of weeks ago the brook was barely a trickle.
Many years ago the bank below St George's Church was lined with allotments and gardens. Now only one allotment remains. Due to a combination of storms, vandalism and some neglect everything is gradually slipping down the valley side.
A contribution to Our World Tuesday and Rubbish Tuesday.

It looks like quite a tangle.
ReplyDeleteTime does take a toll on most everything. However, neglect plays a big part as well.
ReplyDeleteIt deserves more care.
ReplyDeleteIt must have been quite a heavy storm !

Looks like the local dump. Tom The Backroads Traveller
ReplyDeleteA beautiful, verdant area....altho your commentary is so bitter sweet.
ReplyDeleteIt still appears like such a place of peace, even with the litter, but something worthy and welcoming calls.
ReplyDeleteWow...would be so beautiful if cleaned away!
