Well, I found my dream field of poppies today and thought I'd share the location with you. Sadly they aren't flowering anymore, the flowers all dropped about 10 days ago. It is a HUGE field and is just off the A390 shortly after South Winchester golf club [SO22 5QW] on the opposite side of the road), before you get to Hursley going towards Romsey. You can see the lovely field of poppy pod heads from the main road but can't access it from there. There is a gate to the field opposite Vale Farm in Enmill Lane and another further down Enmill lane (smaller and not overlooked by the farm so you can probably pop in there without anyone seeing !!!). I can't wait till next year.........
I thought I'd share it as I've been trying to find one of these lilac poppy fields for over a year now. It'll make for a magificent picture next year....
