Impressive solar-plus-storage system at #RJAH in #Oswestry #Shropshire. It is planned to offset approximately 75 per cent of the hospital’s grid demand, saving an estimated £750,000 each year and cutting carbon emissions by around 600 tonnes. www.bordercountiesadvertizer.co.uk/news/2643864...

Wall Pennywort (Umbilicus rupestris) growing out of moss on a rock. A #wildflower and, in theory, a weed. Both interesting and attractive so we've included it in our #flowergarden #Notaweed #BritishWildFlower #GardenDelight #Shropshire #Oswestry
