Morning in Skipton

The prospect of a good weather forecast meant a short journey up the Aire valley to Skipton, ‘The Gateway to the Dales’ as it is known.

The Leeds/Liverpool canal runs right through the town…

…complete with Yorkshire stone bridges…

…and swans…

…lots of swans.

It’s market day…

…but we prefer to wander…

…even seeing the statue dedicated to local cricket hero, Freddie Trueman.

But nothing beats getting back to the Brown Cow with its amazing choice of Timothy Taylor’s beers!
