A day in Cheshire and Yorkshire

This is a change form exotic locations. Sue and I visited our parents in Cheshire and visited the Anderton boat lift (an historic elevator for barges) and a former stately home. On the way back, we took some photographs of a small village in the Pennines. The last photos are of a short triop we made to Danby in the North York Moors.

I lived in Yorkshire 40 years ago. Your images take me back to that time. Nice job.

Lovely photographs. My husband and I spent a month in Yorkshire about 20 years ago. We keep saying we will go back but we haven't gotten there yet. Your photos make me more determined than ever to go.
