A riverside walk from our holiday cottage to St. Catherine's church
June 4th 2007

Wha House Farm. We stayed here for a week and enjoyed every single moment. I set off from the farm to walk the short distance down the road to the Woolpack Inn where I went to the river.

An enormous Foxglove. It stood well over 6 feet tall

The Eskdale YHA

It was only about 8-30am so a little early to stop here

Sorry....but it was taken in June and for the life of me I can't remember

Could never forget this place though. The delightful Doctor Bridge


The riverside path along the Esk

and now with the river in view

Looking towards Birker Force which flows down from Low Birker Tarn on the plateau above


St. Catherine's Church. What a setting



My return from the church was just a route reversal but with scenery like there is in Eskdale that was no problem

A glimpse of Slight Side and Scafell which we went up the following day

Walking back along the riverside with Border End in the distance


Back to Doctor Bridge

Finally back to the farm and cottage where Edith had been making friends with one of the 20+ dogs on the farm.
