I saw very few sheep around Norbury Park on this bitterly cold day. These two trotted off as I approached, and huddled in the shelter of a thicket. This loop of old river-bed was once the course of the River Mole - the frozen body of water is an abandoned meander, a feature not as often seen on Geograph as might be expected. 'Abandoned' isn't quite the right word - left alone, I don't think the river would have left its old bed; most likely it was evicted by men with shovels, at some time in the last two hundred years.
