Find your space
Escape the crowds and discover the Island’s beautiful open spaces this summer.
This week our spotlight is on Pig Leg Lane, a meadow and woodland on the southern edge of Ryde.
With lots of little paths and clearings, this is a lovely spot for orchids in the spring and summer. Being near the little stream of Monktonmead, it can also get a bit muddy.
