Today was a return to Musbury Heights.

1. The steep walk up the hill.
2. One of the derelict properties that are dotted around the area.
3. You climb all the way up here to take photos,and you are "mucked up" with photographers when you get here.
4. And here we are Musbury Heights.
5. Kept as a hint to what was once here.
6. The tramway, you can still see the wood sleepers and iron rail pins if you really look.
7. Walking the length of the tramway.
8. Off the end and down to reservoir level.
9. Approaching the wet bit and a right turn heading back.
10. The remains you see are the remnants of weavers sheds and farm buildings, evicted by the water board for fear their animals would contaminate the water. Now the area is dotted with animals, and you have to ask was all the displacement, heartache and the destruction of the community really necessary after all.
