Bus stop at Whiteshill
Star Inn, Whiteshill
From the Whiteshill and Ruscombe village shop there is a path down through the fields to Ruscombe Farm. It passes a pond which was probably a mill pond for one of the five mills which were once on the Ruscombe Brook
This squeeze stile is very narrow
Looking back at Whiteshill
Harebells (and bluebells) are out
Looking over Archway School to Rodborough
