There are lots of interesting things to find on the steep Hazel covered escarpments.

| Pignut, delicious! |
 |
| An old gnarled hedge row Ash |
 |
| The ancient flint mine |
 |
| The layers of flint are still visable |
 |
| A fern grows in a mossy niche on the chalk cliff. |
 |
| Wood sorrel. Looking abit worse for wear. Still nice to eat. |
 |
| Jews ear. An edible fungus. One of the few I know for certain. |
 |
| The cave hill overlooking Belfast. |
 |
| The famous Harland and wolfe cranes |
 |
| Boiling up water in a discarded beer can. |
 |
| Sheep sorrel. |
 |
| An early mature Oak. The thicker branches grow on the South side. |
 |
| Some drainage works have been carried out. The result is that alot of flint has been brough to the surface. The place is littered with hundreds of bits like this. I had great fun knaaping a few blades. |
