ELS 503 and 402 take a southbound train over the Oconto River in Stiles for interchange with the CN.
Leaving the towpath I crossed a stile to follow a little used public footpath. The bridge was decidedly precarious.
Two wooden stiles and a stone stile in such a short amount of space!?!

As I walk around the countryside, admiring the skill of the stone wall builders, I'm often mystified by the apparent crudeness of some of the old gate posts, and structures like this squeeze stile (which is the tight gap in a wall that allows people to pass, but not sheep and cattle).
A local archaeologist confirmed my suspicions: they are most often standing stones from 3000 years ago that a farmer will have moved in the distant past to help make a wall or gatepost and free-up space on a paddock. And that's why there aren't as many stone circles as one might expect to find.
So now I know; and so do you!
A view of Tryfan. I Managed to get to the top of this and down the other side quite easily. Erm I mean the stile not Tryfan.

River Brathay
The Brathay is a river of north-west England. Its name comes from Old Norse and means broad river. It rises at a point 1289 feet (393 m) above sea level near the Three Shire Stone at the highest point of Wrynose Pass in the Lake District. Its catchment area includes the northern flanks of Wetherlam, Great Carrs and others of the Furness Fells, as well as a substantial area of the Langdale Fells

Sully checks out the 'stile' out the perimeter wall at St. Peter's Church in the village of Goldhanger which is right next door to the River Blackwater Estuary in the County of Essex (UK).
One can only guess how old this stile is. It most likely dates back at least to the 19th century and more likely well beyond. It's more specifically known as a 'squeeze stile'.
Sully is a 'Goldendoodle' and was born in early June 2020.

Another warm, sunny day and another countryside walk. We seemed to climb over an awful lot of these stiles today, some requiring high levels of athleticism to be able to get over them!
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
By this country stile we'll pause a while,
And taking in the view, I'm so glad I'm with you.
