Late out this morning to dodge the showers. #Royden quiet. Hobbit path for the first time in a while. Heather and gorse brightening up the heath. Coffee and carbs at Benty’s, now firmly in pumpkin mode.

A dense forest area with tall trees and thick underbrush surrounding a narrow dirt path. A large moss-covered tree stands prominently in a serene forest clearing surrounded by fallen leaves and dense greenery. A festive arrangement of pumpkins, gourds, and autumn foliage decorates the entrance to a tent at Benty Farm, inviting visitors to a pyo pumpkin patch. A dirt path runs alongside dense green shrubs with small yellow and purple flowers in a natural, wooded area.
