214 Friday 19th to Sunday 21st April 2024 Lancaster weekend
Our next weekend away took us to Lancaster. We found a holiday let from Booking.com
We had tea before setting off so just chilled out on the Friday night.
On Saturday, we drove to Barbon to continue the next stage of the Westmorland Heritage Walk. I had done the route before so knew it was more challenging than the previous sections.
We started out up the drive to Barbon Manor before the path went left.
The pastoral scene was very attractive.
We were soon out of the fields and heading for the first peak of Eskholme Pike up a steep pathless slope.
We had a rest at the rocky top...
Eventually we reached the top of Middleton Fell. Simon flaked out.
The trig point was surprisingly decorated.
There was a good view over Dentdale.
This was the view ahead to Sedbergh and the Howgills
On the Sunday morning we went to Mass at Lancaster Cathedral which was pretty close to where we were staying. We were a bit early and they were OK with us taking a few pictures.
After that we drove to Borwick Hall to film a video.It can be seen here
After that we had a bit of lunch at Booth's in Carnforth before heading to Morecambe and Happy Mount Park. Simon made a friend of a horse at the car park.
We then filmed a video of the Happy Mount Express.
We then had a game of crazy golf. Simon thought one of the other players might be John Lydon. The guy did look a bit similar but was too young. Simon won the game.
We then drove home.
