Hatfield


I got back to Hatfield Moors for the first time since the autumn. There was a big moorland fire there last summer, and the result has been to drive fire breaks through some swathes of scrubland. It had to be done, but was a bit of a shock.

Just to give a context of why I like it so much. I walked with Layla for over 5 hours, a really great walk full of everything. In that time I passed one other human; had a good chat with him about the moors, then carried on. That such an amazing place should be so unknown is incredible to me - wouldn't want to change it though.
