Higher Wych The small village of Higher Wych lies beside Wych Brook (foreground). The bridge over the lane running N-S through the village can be seen on the right. The village is backed by a low ridge (left)
Small mere, near Gipsy Corner Small mere in undulating pastureland, adjacent to a field boundary, one of many in this area. View west from the lane from Higher Wych to Iscoyd Park
Wych Brook Valley. View across the valley of Wych Brook on bearing of 255 deg from Wigland footpath 8, just south of its junction with footpath 5. The foreground is in England (and SJ 4943), beyond the valley is Wales (and SJ 4843) with Pen-y-Bryn Farm on the skyline. Wych Brook itself - invisible in its deep valley in midfield - only the tree tops showing - forms the border between Cheshire and Wales. This undulating terrain is mostly sheep farming country.
