Great Shefford

Travel Guide

Descent to Great Shefford. A footpath descends to the village. The tractor lines indicate that the crop was planted at right angles to the slope of the hill so the path must have been cleared at the time of planting.

Footpath through the wheat. According to the GPS the path seems to be north of the official line, but this is the one that has been cleared. Perhaps this is the farmer making an arbitrary line about where the path goes, unless there are more sinister factors in play.

Patterns in the wheat. These are patterns simply caused by the tractor turning at the end of the row, not part of a crop "circle".

Patterned Farmland near Great Shefford. A stubble field in the distance showing a mix of regular straight tramlines (used by tractors/sprayers for fertiliser/pesticide application while the crop was growing) and several winding tracks (left by combine/tractors/trailers at harvest). – The square is all farmland. These interesting lines of differing vegetation and crops and lines made an interesting landscape for the entire section along the road to Great Shefford, in this square.
