I know there are trees and shrubbery behind the house but didn’t think it extended this far. Sometimes the last map you look at is the one where you live.

It circles Europe’s largest tip (circa 1999) now more of a hill than hole and in use less now but enough to put people off walking near it. It releases enough gas to power the towns buses, schools and most of the town, but not enough for the council chambers. It leaves a residual smell, no more than a nasty-niff at its worst.
