Revisiting part of a walk I completed 12 months ago – through Brent River Park, Hanwell.

Dahlias by the River Brent
Wasn’t sure if this was a memorial or not. Placed on a tree over the River Brent, there was nothing to suggest why these flowers were there, but it looked quite deliberate.

Wharncliffe Viaduct through Brent Meadows, Hanwell
I have photographed the Wharncliffe Viaduct many times. Wandering around beneath the huge arches is like being in a film set. Maybe ‘Logan’s Run’ …..nature reclaiming a derelict city.
