Walked from White Down and along a small section of the North Downs Way, then steeply down to skirt the west of Westcott and back in a circle to retrace some of our steps, again some of them very steep.

Winnowing
Nick picked some grain from the field margin, did some winnowing and we munched it. Had a nice oaty taste. Barley or oats? We're not sure.

We decided this was the cleaner's house
It was in the same area as a huge modern sprawling mansion, and this house in turn has a small chalet next door. So we think the cleaner of the mansion has to have his/her own cleaner living next door.
