Ahead of the 2023 Suffolk Walking Festival, Ben Heather, photographer, nature lover and Green Access Officer for Suffolk County Council, explored floristically rich Mellis Common and an ancient Drove Road Cowpasture Lane.
He walked with Patrick Barkham, nature writer and Guardian journalist, Marie Lagerberg, floral specialist, and David Falk, the Director of the Suffolk Walking Festival.
Together they discussed changing landscapes, ancient rights of way and the life and times of famous nature writer, and one time Mellis resident, Roger Deakin.
