Visible

Seen in the picture above at sunrise this morning is the structure of hurdles erected by the grazier who has now taken all sheep and cattle off the pasture land. It is just where it was before being moved away last year. It has all the incongruous characteristics of a temporary structure. For more than a year I had been asking for it to be removed or located at a less conspicuous site. The reason for this is that this 'temporary' lop sided structure could be seen from a considerable distance away lit up by the sun as the only such object and it clashed with the rest of the landscape otherwise free from manufactured artefacts. A stone built permanent structure would not have been so much at odds with the surroundings. I had been asking SWT for its removal for well over a year with requests falling on deaf ears. Two new SWT people, Clare and Brendon, were sympathetic and eventually the hurdles were removed. Now they are back again. This illustrates the situation referred to in my reply to Nigel's recent comment. He says that 'many, many' times SWT has done what I asked for. A more accurate version of this would be that I have asked 'many, many' times and sometimes after a long wait something happened - but only temporarily.
