What is Sarn Lane? And what is this blog about?

What is Sarn Lane?

Sarn Lane is a stretch of road that connects the Flintshire villages of Hope and Caergwrle. "Live in Hope and die in Caergwrle" is the often quoted phrase that describes how close the villages are. Sarn Lane itself is a couple of miles long but this blog is only concerned with the middle section which is a dog leg of tarmac thoroughfare flanked on either side by tree and hedges. The extent can be seen from this aerial photo with key features labelled.


What is this blog about?

The idea behind this blog is to record what happens over time along this particular track. I'm not expecting anything dramatic. Sometimes it will be farm activity. Sometimes it will be flora and fauna. Sometimes it will be weather related, for example, the recent snowfall made it look like this.
