Hi Max,
 
My bees are in both village and country locations. Its generally accepted in my part
of the UK (Noth West) that townies get the best crop. Not only is there a more
continuous flow, all those shrubs as well as trees but the ambient temperature is
higher in towns, reflection of heat from brickwork, central heating, CO2 etc. My
best apiary Home - is sandwiched between two parks on the edge of the village. A
very varied planting of trees in the park.
 
Give my regards to Eric Hughes and Agnes if you see them.
 
Yours
Ian
