Back to Yorkshire after the wet fortnight we had in 2007.
This time we stayed in a farmhouse at Cringles (photo right), on the high ground between Addingham and Silsden. We only had a week but the weather was much better and we avoided the rain that was around.
A week wasn't really long enough, and we are likely to return again.
Around the Farm
Some shots taken on the first morning around the farm.

Walking to Addingham
Helen and I stop for photos. Sun hats were required.

Grassington
Helen meets a horse on the way to the river.
We sat by the river for a while enjoying the sun and the tranquility.

Bolton Abbey - The Strid
The 'Strid' in the grounds of Bolton Abbey, a narrow channel that concentrates the river into a deep and powerful torrent. And the view downstream.
Helen and I sitting together at Barden Bridge on our walk along the Wharfe at Bolton Abbey.
And by 'The Strid’.

Skipton
A canal boat.
Helen feeding the ‘swanlings’, as she calls them. And the Holy Trinity Church.

Kilnsey Park
Helen enjoyed some more bird feeding at Kilnsey Park. I also did a bit of trout fishing and we saw the captive red squirrels.

The War Memorial at Addingham.
And a horse-drawn cart that passed the entrance to the farm.
