One more to go, there are 11 parks in the borough, I have to visit Rhyddings to complete this particular quest, I know I have visited Rhyddings before, but the next visit puts a full stop on that set.
The hedgerows are full of Blackberries and Oak trees are sagging with all the acorns on them, so its been a good year for fruits and berries. The trees are a bit more species specific with regard to Autumn colour, the Horse Chestnuts have gone brown and dropped most of their leaves, Beech are just starting to go brown and the rest are still very green,. I don't think Autumn will arrive on mass until we have a bit of frost to bring them all in line.
