I wonder what a census figure would show if a count was made as to the number of walkers who take this route, often daily? Beyond the copse lies an expanse of landscape leading to the tiny hamlet of Crafton (Buckinghamshire, UK).
The name of the hamlet is Anglo-Saxon in origin and means ‘farm where the saffron grows’.
Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of Crocus sativus, commonly known as the “saffron crocus”. The vivid crimson stigma and styles, called threads, are collected and dried for use mainly as a seasoning and colouring agent in food. Saffron has long been the world’s costliest spice.
