Haven't visited my local Hill in a while, and I left it quite late in the evening, so I found a spot I knew next to a bench and set mysellf up.

This is 1st time I tried out my Lee Hard set of grads as well, using the 0.9 hard grad.

What amazed me was when I loaded photos up at home, it looked so much better than fidding around in photoshop with the exposure etc.

Excuse me on 3rd photo, somehow I got it slightly out of focus...

Can see you coming on leaps and bounds here mate.
As you said 3rd shot is OOF, only worthy of the bin really.
First shot is my personal fav, like the foreground rocks. Not as keen on the bench, but that could be due to the flare and houses more than use of the bench.
 
Good use of the grads.

I'm with Jake re the first shot alhtough potentially a lower postiion may have hidden the white house more and brought the rock more into the composition.

for the bench shot I'd be tempted to try shooting form behind the bench land having it in the bottom third, that way it doesn't present you with the difficult challenge of skewed perspectives/lines making it look as though it is tilting as in the second shot.

As it's local you can get back up there soon and build on these.
 
Nice sunset Rob, those filters are proving their worth.

I haven't managed to time a camera outing with a decent sunset yet this year.
