Welcome to the Rudloe and environs website.
Here you will find news, articles and photos of an area that straddles the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in north-west Wiltshire.
Contributions in the form of articles or photos are welcome. Even those with completely contrary views to mine!
Thanks to the website builder 1&1 and Rob Brown for the original idea.
Rudloescene now, in January 2014, has a sister, academic rather than anarchic, website about Box history here: http://www.boxpeopleandplaces.co.uk/
It contains thoroughly professional, well-researched articles about Box and its people.

See the yellow speck down the Bradford Road? That's Howard wending his way back to Litter HQ. See the plant in the foreground? That's horseradish. In the second picture, we see Viki, Howard and horseradish.
I will repeat here the post-pick email I sent to the Rudloe email group ...
So here we have that, 'eventual' (actually not so eventual) story of the November litter-pick, in pictures.
The litter-pick rendezvous just before 10 o'clock and it's belting down. I was here to tell anyone that might turn up that the pick was off.
Yet three stalwarts, Howard, Gordon and Viki, braved the rain to keep our environment litter-free. Die Hard 4 coming to a cinema near you soon.
For years, 'someone' has been scattering fruit, vegetables and bread in the woodland at Rudloe Firs. Perhaps it's that same 'someone' who also scatters similar stuff in the Bradford Road woodland (by the school). Here's this week's offering - pasta shells
