A Boxing Day Walk from Boltby Bank along the Cleveland Way Long Distance Footpath towards Sutton Bank.


Another beautiful day for walking on the Cleveland Way Long Distance Footpath.
Today, My choice for a walk was from the top of Boltby Bank where there is a small parking area adjacent to a road junction. From here it is only a few minutes walk to join the Cleveland Way Long Distance Footpath.
Boltby Bank is 6 miles east of Thirsk and on the western edge of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. Boltby Bank is three and a half miles north of Sutton Bank . These photographs are of views taken from the Cleveland Way Footpath between Boltby Bank and Thirlby Bank (north of Sutton Bank). 
It was lovely and peaceful to be walking along this stretch of the Cleveland Way. Good for the soul.  




About half a mile south of Boltby Bank on the Cleveland Way.



Same as above.



High Barn - which is deserted. About one mile south of Boltby Bank.



High Barn.



High Barn.



Guess I like the views of High Barn.



And once again - High Barn.
Looking north in the direction of Boltby Bank - today's start point.



This is looking south along the Cleveland Way at a point about mid way between Boltby Bank and Sutton Bank. The high point in the distance (about 25 minutes walking time) overlooks Lake Gormire and the village of Thirlby. Down below the far hill is South Woods Hall which is where Siegfried Farnon (Vet, Donald Sinclair) "All Creatures Great and Small" lived.
