'Grantchester, about 2 miles up-stream from Cambridge, is perhaps one of the most famous villages in England, loved by many for its rural setting and beautiful meadows along the riverbank' (Rupert Brooke's Grantchester).
This video is a walk through Grantchester, enjoying its meadows where hawthorn and blackthorn trees grow along the riverbank of the meandering river Cam and also along the many hedgerows.
Enjoy the bountiful red berries of some of the hawthorn trees. Some also show autumnal colours of lime yellow, red, and brown hues in their leaves. While others have almost lost all their leaves, showing their contorted trunks and branches.
The hawthorn is a thorny plant that produces berry-like fruits. Some people refer to these as ‘haws’. Haws are not technically berries, as they contain stones, similar to plums. However, I have referred to these fruits as berries, as this is what people commonly call them.
