Leaving the public carpark at Conder Green...
The 'Umbrella Man' says it all! |
 |
| This unusual letter box must belong to an Italy-loving resident. |
 |
| Leaving 'The Stork' pub behind... |
 |
| The 'Tree of the Week' |
 |
| Vic navigates one of the many stiles on this walk. |
 |
| A double hazard. A narrow gap and an awkward stile. |
 |
| 'Narrow-boat' of the week. Actually it comes from a 'broad-beam' canal boat. |
 |
| ".......nothing quite like it for cooling the blood"! |
 |
| At least they are staying dry. |
 |
The sign on the gate read,
"Please replace the drum after using the stile" |
 |
| Contemplating our route |
 |
| Coffee Time, in a fairly sheltered wood... apart from the drips! |
 |
| Joining the Lancaster Canal at Galgate and proceeding north. |
 |
| (I didn't know the canal flowed downhill, Danny." |
 |
| A chance meeting with a picnic table provided a suitable place for an early lunch. (Notice the brolly is not required.) |
 |
| Continuing north through what would be lovely scenery if the sun was shining. |
 |
| Time to leave the canal and proceed to the tiny hamlet of 'Stodday'. |
 |
| More hazards |
 |
| Not a pretty sight of this unfortunate lamb. |
 |
| A rather attractive roadside water feature and, yes, it actually works....recycling the water. |
 |
| No, this is not the canal....It's the footpath leading to the Lancashire Coastal Path along the River Lune estuary. |
 |
| If you can't go round it...go through it. |
 |
Arriving back at the carpark...and the brolly isn't needed.
Thanks Danny (and Barbara) for providing the parched-peas at the end of our walk. |
