Frosty Britain: 18 magical photographs from across the frozen countryside

We asked you to send us your photographs of the beautiful scenes around the country over the past few days. The results have been fabulous.

Over the past week or so Britain has been hit by dry, icy weather which has transformed the countryside in spectacularly beautiful ways.

And some of Country Life’s readers have shared their glorious pictures with us via our Facebook page.

Warmer weather will shortly be on its way, according to forecasters – but thanks to the efforts of these contributors we’ll remember the beauty of ‘Frosty Britain’ for some time to come.

Andy Thomas’s beautiful sunrise got him in poetic mood: ‘When I look up at the sky I can see it streaked with vapour trails shining bright in the dawn light, they reminded me of shattered ice on a pond.’
