Dist:0.2km<br/>I believe this sign has been refurbished. One of the pictures depicts a World War 1 aircraft. This is because Stow Maries Aerodrome was used during this period and is now in the process of refurbishment. The sign is located at the side of The Street, this is looking towards Cold Norton.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This is the glow from a glow worm (Lampyris noctilua) unfortunately the beetle was hiding behind the foliage. I suspect I visited [[128124]] too late in the season as I only saw two and only one was in a photographable position. The flash was enough to cause the Glow-worm to give up. This photo is one of only two exposures I managed to get. Watch this space in a year's time. The technical info is as follows ISO 200, 200mm lens at F8, 5.6 seconds exposure, manually triggered bounce flash
