Ruined Barn at Roach End

I've taken this derelict barn before at other times of the year, I'm always drawn back to this spot, this was taken in late August. It is located on The Roaches, Staffordshire, at the northern end of the Gritstone escarpment

Superb shot Jim, I can see why you are drawn back to this spot, your capture and conversion to B&W of this landscape are excellent.
