Askham to Dufton

Well it might not have been sunny, but at least it stayed dry.
A short walk from Askham was the impressive Lowther Castle which is undergoing restoration .
The parkland made a pleasant change from Lakeland fells.
We also passed the original water supply for the village of Bolton.
The big surprise of the day was a surprise visit from two old friends, Huw and his wife Allison. We had a lovely cup of tea in Morland with them.
A relatively easy day ended with another cafe stop in Dufton with Simon and Lesley, who are again putting us up for the night.
We had another yummy platter once back at their home.
