Found a lovely bit of secluded woodland, next to a livery I have been doing some work at. So yesterday, after I had finished I hiked the 300 meters to the wood for an overnighter.

The woodland is mainly oak and hawthorn, and the ground very damp, even the dead standing and dead hanging wood felt quite damp. So I decided an altar fire had the best chance of success.

Saturday morning, all cleared away.
This was a really welcome trip out for me, and I shall be definitely be returning.
 
Plenty of horses being close to a livery, but during the night I heard foxes, owls and a muntjac barking, also what may have been a badger snuffling around.
 
Nice little report, thank you. The plough type shelter is pretty perfect for this time if year...
