Just views this morning on the blog, we took other photos of course but I feel a little nostalgic today so you will have to walk with me or move on :)
We start on Burgh Lane South this leads to Drybones pit head, cottage that was and wood, all worth a visit.

The old shaft is fenced off

This substantial stone must have seen and done some work

Carrying straight on and we see the old cottage area, this was burnt out a few years ago by vandals, it's a beautiful spot by the river.

A bit overgrown now the view from the front door.

Carol- you have turned comments back on! Yeah! I love places like this although they can be melancholy. But I like to wonder why people chose the places they did for their houses, and where they planted certain things- often we can find the old orchards or follow the stone fences (in the East)
