And I always thought wool only grew on sheep! 😁 An interesting image, Kath, and the composition gives a good strong perspective 👍🏻👍🏻

Very powerful image, Kath, thank goodness it’s not strung-up dead geese which briefly came to mind from the thumbnail! i had hoped for a version with naked sheep clamouring for their coats back 🙂 must be a tough life up there for farmers. Now off to find Johnny NP. I’ll take his blue tinted glasses ☂️

Thanks all and Janet - please remember! They look like lamb's tails! This is above a reservoir in deepest East Lancashire and reminded me of seeing moles tied to fences. Think it was to show what a good job the mole catcher was doing but very macabre! In the film, Hayley Mills buries the, 'dead uns' she finds. The script is very tied up in religious analogies.
Oh gosh Dave - save Johnny! He'll have nightmares, do not let him know you've given me an award but a big thank you anyway!

The clincher for me is the extra post top right. That holds it all together...
There's a mole catcher operates near Belsay Hall in Northumberland. The light is never right when we pass by his 'trophy cabinet'...

Thank you Moira and also for your lovely award!
Yes, I cropped in tighter for detail and had three image in the end but the perspective and marker stone one was the keeper!
Oh the moles yes! I remember them vividly from walks through Dallam Tower grounds as a child. There were solid metal fences and moles strung along them! Last I saw were up in Wycoller - somewhere you must visit!

The mention of moles brought to mind Adrian Mole, aged 13¾.
I do like the inclusion of the apparent independent post, top right.

Been cleaning and I've come back to your lovely comments and some awards!
Thank you all so much and to Wallace, Tony and Janet's GEA! Wowsers and totally chuffed! 🤗 Hentilages I have never heard of but I will google!
No Malc, don't think they hung Adrian Mole from a fence by his tail but I might be tempted! That marker pole just had to be left there or we'd still be on the moor!
Stoke up the burner Wallace it's chilly here too!

Excellent Kath Lin
A fabulous furry fence, Kath.

Brilliant capture Kath, from the thumbnail I thought they were moles which are a common site in our area.

I remember watching that film when I was a little girl, I can remember Hayley Mills and a dark haired fella in a barn, and the wild countryside.
I have seen fences like this often on the 'Woodhead' and I thought it was sheep getting too close to the wire fence, so glad it is not, that would hurt
Terrific composition and mono Kath!

Thank you all and sorry for late reply to your much appreciated comments.
Yes Carol - the moles seem to be hung up on the fences in the Lakes! Childhood memories from when we used to stay in Arnside.
Woodhead Pass is notorious for wandering sheep isn't it Diane! The wrapping around of the wool is so uniform - like the moorland grass.
