Thanks very much to DEREK and to CWATTERS for links to those photos.
What a treat, to my nostalgic mind, to see the skyline remain after 45
years. Are you guys gardeners who helpfully google or gardeners who
also happen to know stock-car racing? And yes, I think there was ivy
at work in that hedgerow. Please forgive my double-identity hotmail
addresses!

Gardeners who google in my case. I live about 30 miles east of

Northampton
but have only been there once and never to the race track.


Is the tree in the 2004 photo the same tree, or thought to be? I ask
because an elm tree probably wouldn't have survived.


No not sure which tree is which but individual trees and their shadows can
be seen on Google Earth!

Oh dear, northampton folks knows as how, once you're 30 miles East,
the people have webbed feet ----
and seriously not far back you could hear very distinct accent
differences within Northants between villages 10 miles apart.
