WI Walk - Old Ellerby (3 miles)

Saturday, 30th May 2015

A lovely, sunny walk which really showed off our green and pleasant land.

Horses enjoying the grass and the sunshine

Lovely

A bit of welcomed shade

Spot the orange tip butterfly

Last of the bluebells

Horse chestnut blooms

Hawthorn blossom

Newly dug, secret pond

There is a path here, honest!

The Alpacas again

East Yorkshire: Withernsea area wander

Sunday, 24th May 2015

A nice walk on the beach followed by a trip down memory lane.

Withernsea's Pier Towers

Wind turbines on the horizon

Miles and miles of deserted beach

Remains of a path once on the cliff top

WW2 Pillbox
- this will have been on the clifftop once upon a time

Can't beat a barefoot walk on the beach

Withernsea Lighthouse
- about half a mile in from the sea!

Withernsea School
- my old stomping ground

Halsham Water Tower

Thanks for looking 😊

Beverley then Raywell

Friday, 22nd May 2015

Had the day off work for some appointments and decided on an urban walk around Beverley before my first appointment and a walk around Raywell after my last one!

And so onto Raywell for a lovely Bluebell and Wild Garlic walk:

East Yorkshire: Rowley (2.8 miles)

Monday, 4th May 2015

Early May Bank Holiday and the sun's out.  Best make the most of that then!

We're having a bit of a heatwave.  This must be it for summer then!  

A new walk though one I probably won't do again.  Nowt wrong with it but it just didn't float my boat.

St Peters Church at Rowley

War Memorial

Perfectly groomed fields

Hard, dusty paths - even at this time of year!

Speedwell

Bluebells

Path back to Rowley
with Rowley Manor in the background

Aye, for whatever reason, it didn't really inspire me didn't this walk.

Thanks for looking 😊
