Horace's Seat

H and I took a stroll late this afternoon. From our house we walked over the Chestnut Farm plantation and took a turn round Hick Lodge and as always ended up on Horace's Seat. Whilst we could stand the cold and biting wind we sat and watched the Sun go down.

Horace was a local councillor, now deceased, who was instrumental in the regeneration of the local coalfieds. When asked about his motivation and what kept him going he would reply "you gotta 'ave a dream, lad".
