River Ayr walk

As shopping was done at lunchtime, I decided on adding rolls salad and cheese to the list....then four miles out of Ayr to Auchencruive (properly spelt Auchencraobh) the site old the old Agricultural college..like so many, closed and sold off. The name means Tree field..and it's exactly that. 

We parked by the unused gate and picnicked before our short wander up the River Ayr Way.

This has the look of a Rimu? There are many imported trees from the original owners of the estate over 200 years ago

It is so dry....not water running down the path, but a flow of dry leaves
