Old Sheep Pens.
Not strictly monochrome….but I think fits the theme of Monochromatic….
and I feel also fits the mood of this remote location.

These Old Sheep pens are high up on the Howden Moors at the top of the Derwent Valley in Derbyshire. They are from the days when the numbers of sheep grazing these moors was much higher. Now in more enlightened times, which recognise the damage of over grazing, the numbers have been drastically reduced. The pens remain.

Nice effect – it looks very ‘vintage’, as if it’s from the late 1800s.

Good that they left them there – soft and “old” mood . Much feeling.

Truth is that like much in the countryside it is easier to leave than take away ….. the upside is that we do get some interesting ‘props’ in what might otherwise be bland locations (-:
