On our final morning, we went for a walk around Semmer Water, one of only two natural lakes in the Dales (Malham Tarn is the other). As in the Lake District, this lake is glacial in origin.
We set off on the lakeside road....the sun was shining...
The scenery was beautiful, and once again there were plenty of new lambs about....and daffodils...
There were plenty of stone walls and stone barns to be seen. The barns are generally disused now, but were originally used to store winter feed, and to protect stock from severe weather.
Also to the seen on this walk is an abandoned church, Old Stalling Busk Church.
A view across the lake. The latter part of this walk was very wet and our boots were covered with mud!
After our walk at Semmer, we headed home to Suffolk, stopping for lunch at Bedale. We had a good look around the church...
Most of the bollards had been "yarn bombed"...
A lunch of Northern proportions, and at a very reasonable price.....finally it was time to drive home.
just came across your blog posts by chance. Enjoyed reading about your adventures and loved the yarn bombing blue tit
