I am a self-employed web designer/developer and also lecture in digital imaging (mostly photoshop and photography) at Coventry University and The Herbert studios.
Plenty of open countryside to loose yourself in, in the village of New Arley. It kind of reminds me at times of the prairies in great plains of North America.
It's a shame I didn't get a snap of this scene during spring when the bluebell, ramsons (wild garlic), campion and other wild flowers completely carpet the woodland floor.
This woods may be small, but it is packed with lovely things to see.
It takes a good hour and a half to walk around these lovely woods. Very peaceful. Exceptionally amasing in sunny evenings as the red bark of the pine trees glow like embers in the setting sun. One of Arley's gems.
A view of Astley from the eaves of a pine wood in New Arley, North Warwickshire. Across these fields lies the soon to be restored ruins of Astley Castle ('the home of three queens of England' - Elizabeth Woodville, Elizabeth of York and Lady Jane Grey).
If you were to stroll across these fields, you will stumble across a strange 2 metre high conical shaped monument in the middle of a field to the right. This is a memorial stone to Lady Jane Grey, established (it is believed) by her father.
This lovely rolling hill used to be a spoil heap back in the days when New Arley was a mining village. It's now covered in a lush carpet of grass. It also screens off the nearby industrial estate from the view of the residential areas of the village.

James, fabulous set. I grew up at Corley Moor & went to Old & New Arley on many occasions with my parents. Also went to the "Jampot" on many occasions

The Rose-bay willow herb adds a splash of colour on the gorse heath in the village of New Arley.
The bracken throngs in Old Arley woods can grow way above your head, given this quite place a prehistoric feel.
From here, you really get to appreciate just how quite life in New Arley can be.
New Arley is surrounded by sleeping, oak-lined country lanes like this one.
