Well, I suppose it's not the sort of open downland you have down your way, and the management is probably a bit hard to take an overview of!
It's a patchwork: you stroll around for 10 mins and it goes: messy garden, old orchard, tidy garden, new orchard, veg patch, field with pony, field that used to have pony now going back to scrub, Very Scrubby Field Almost a Wood, improved field with BRIGHT GREEN grass, garden full of long grass strimmed once a year in a fit of fury, fruit patch, unimproved fields with sheep, rather gracious garden, hay field, veg patch, enclave of chickens, enclave of pigs, mining ruin overgrown with grass, couple of improved fields growing clover, random trackway with the hazel hedges all overgrown into trees, neat bungalow gardens, beautifully managed horticulturists garden, polytunnel, unimproved field with cows, overgrown field, Here Be Random Goats, cottage garden, nother orchard, woods, The House Embedded In a Rosebush, Pub garden, overgrown mine, more cows, river, woods. All sort of draped onto a steep hillside and enclosed by a complex network of hedges in various states of repair.
It is a bit random, but there are *squillions* of nettles and docks!
