Littledale Drama

High drama on our Littledale walk as Anthony's does evil things to a ligament (we think) and a bull blocks our path.
A short though quite strenuous  walk in a little known (to us) valley with wonderful views and curious buildings.
Early in the walk a sudden twist left Anthony with a quite painful injury which slowed him down for the rest of the walk.
We passed an abondoned church in the middle of nowhere and subsequently discovered that it was built as a "Free" Anglican church by a Rev. Dodson who left the mainstream Church of England (with others) after a legal wrangle about the true nature of Christian baptism.
We passed Littledale Hall. Once the Dodson family home but in recent times a christian retreat centre and latterly a rehab. centre for drug and alcohol problems.
As our walk drew near to it's end Anthony took a short cut (with Mike) to meet us part way down the road. John, John and Martin continued to the car. Our way was blocked by a LARGE but seemingly docile bull. We took no chances and hopped into the next field to continue to the car park. A good and thoroughly "interesting" walk.
