This post is dedicated to Sheffield Wildlife Trust and in particular its Chief Executive Nigel Doar whose commitment to the cause of barbed wire in the countryside is much appreciated by Tinsley Wire and other manufacturers.
The glint of spring sunshine on galvanised wire spurs is one of those visual treats that one yearns to rediscover when walking on moorland sadly lacking in fencing. The beauty of the long straight lines is so welcome in a a natural landscape dominated by such an annoying dependance on curves. As is the refreshing reminder that however hard it tries rural England cannot resist the determined push of urban industrialised priorities.
And just in case wild mammals don't get the message we wonder again at the efficient way the barbed wire leaves its mark.
