The River Lea meanders through Fallowfield yesterday on a frosty, sunny January day. The most natural, unspoilt and hidden riverside site in Luton, now a County Wildlife Site. A clump of Reed Mace in Boggy Mead, one of the three ancient fields here.
Comment: Fallowfield is on the flood plain of the River Lea, hence this urban site is undeveloped and preserves three ancient fields: River Close, Boggy Mead and Catch's Close, within just a mile or so of Luton town centre.
