I wandered on Ashtead Common this afternoon to see what it was like. It turned out to be a maze of footpaths, some very boggy, criss-crossing between trees, many of which were very old. They were also waiting for some pleasant weather, the first signs of which seem to be appearing, so that they could grow leaves.
In this dormant forest I came across a view over a farm towards the hills opposite. In an ideal world the farm would have had neither wire fences nor a modern, shiny building, nor the power cables in the distance but it's a pleasant view nonetheless, particularly when one considers that it's within the M25.
