Harvest 2007

This image taken 12th August 2007 shortly after the season harvest of the winter barley fields north of Barrow End Cottage (Ordnance Survey grid reference: SU 019 798) walking along side Lilybrook stream.

A good weather forecast enabled farmers to wrap up of winter wheat during the August weekend. Winter Barley yield from across Wiltshire has been average, owing to the dry spring and poor summer weather, ie the very wet June and July months.
