Scarborough- Cloughton- Hayburn Wyke

                       Walk to a Waterfall  Yet again we started our outing by meeting up at Leeds railway station, in time to catch the twelve minutes past nine train heading east to Scarborough. The journey takes about 75 minutes. On arrival at the station we now cross the road , in order to take the Whitby bound bus to the village of  Cloughton. From here we take the lane that leads you to the coastal path, this time we are heading north. A bit of a downhill uphill start to this pathway but eventually it evens out and then lends itself to great views of the surrounding countryside.

On approaching the cliff tops near to this location ,we could just about make out the Waterfall as it c...

As the first frames began , it was evident that Glenn had participated in this sport before and he proved to be a formidable competitor, Derek, Brian and Dave giving him a good run his money, the other lads struggling to find any sort of rhythm during this first game. It was a totally different outcome during the second game, with John finding his mojo and putting together almost 3 strikes in a row he wen...

Wednesday  16 October 2020 Saltaire.Milner Field 1869 - 1950 Colin and Brian met at Leeds City Staion on Platform 5 for the Skipton train to Saltaire arriving at around 10:45 rendezvousing with John and Allan for a circular walk of around five miles to Milner Field.  After leaving tha station Allan and John struck up a conversation with a local seventy-one year old who had lived in Saltaire all his life and loved the place so much he decided to stay.  We then set off for Milner Field which was about a mile or so from the station passing through Saltaire Park and passing Titus Salt school on the way.  Milner Field was a large mansion set within its own parkland grounds on the northern slope of the Aire valley one mile to the north west of the mill and model village of Sal.taire  in West Yorkshire, England.  The house was commissioned by Titus Salt Jnr, the youngest son of the famous Victorian wool baron and philanthropist Sir Titus Salt, and built in 1869 to...
