But there's also broken glass everywhere, and this is one 'feature' that needs to be removed as soon as possible. Kneeling down to get shots of lichen was a careful affair, inspecting the ground closely to make sure I wasn't about to spike my knee on a bramble, let alone a shard of glass.
Tim the moss and lichen expert seemed to enjoy himself, bustling around the site, listing the different species he found, a few of which were of particular note, either because of the place they were growing, or their abundance, or the rarity of them.
