A few hours grace and Firle Beacon beckoned this afternoon. Had I been here yesterday, the Downs would have been covered with windblown snow, but today it could only be seen in the far distance on, the high ground of Ashdown Forest and into Kent. The ice on the cattle trough was one sign of the cold, as was the cutting north east wind.


Newhaven and sheep

Arlington reservoir and snow in the far distance.

The Longman and the remains of snow.
