(No reader got in touch re last week’s picture – it was a view north-west over Alkborough Flats taken from the footpath between Alkborough and Burton Stather which follows the top of the scarp slope of the Lincolnshire Heights overlooking the Vale of Trent and beyond to the south Pennine foothills. A wlk to be recommended on a fine clear day.)
