Dick's Pics

Pylon reflection

Yes it's a pylon reflected on the surface of the Basingstoke Canal running through Woking in Surrey. Although on the pylon side of the canal it's pretty industrial, on the side where I'm standing to take the image it's still the original heathland and not more than 50 yards behind me is a Bronze Age round barrow.

There are three barrows here. While they're marked on the map and there's a sign about them nearby, they are tucked away in the trees and it would be possible to live for years in Woking without knowing they existed.
