A Suitable Setting






Those who spend their free time visiting battlefields know that the setting of a fight should help create the right atmosphere. A sense of theatre and a feeling for choreography help the adrenalin to stir. The hind had run down the shaded side of Wimble Holme Hill towards the woods following a stag, when two more stags appeared in silhouette against the morning sky. Much bellowing from the first stag was followed by desperate sounds from the two engaged in combat above but it was quickly over and the two ran down towards the others.
