Yesterday I walked near Hebden Bridge, inc. the famous beauty spot of Hardcastle Crags, in Calderdale, meeting up with my mate who lives over that way. Many shops in Hebden Bridge were still undergoing renovation work following the winter floods, the town is still struggling!
somebody tried selling us a joke magazine here for £1, he was oughta luck!
nice river stroll out of town
we stopped at Gibson Mill for refreshments, the coffee was £1.95 but really spanking. The cakes looked good but VERY pricey so we eschewed them, rather than chewed them!
we ended up on the moors at the valley end after missing the turn off, but a bit of cross country plod found us the road, then back down towards town.
anybody ID this flower?
On the return leg we happily stumbled across Midgehole WMC being open, summat I have never seen before! A couple of very good value pints followed in the May sunshine by the river......idyllic spot! Herbie (flying Herbert to his mates cos of his hobby) has a pic of us boozing, he may join the forum n post it.
Then back to Hebden Bridge for a pint at the Fo O0x and Goose, then train home for me.
