Fern in the Ruins

You have seen plenty of ruins on this blog but no ferns yet, so here’s a tiny fern growing out of the ruins of the priory wall. While exploring the extensive grounds of the ruins Peter and Heddy befriended us—Peter, a gentleman of 72 and Hetty, his border terrier. Peter helped us with information about the ruins, told us stories about fox hunting and otter hunting and reminisced about his earlier days living in Cornwall.
