Turned for 'home' here on 7 tump walk with Darren from Kilburn. Marched south along Cleveland way passing England's finest view (according to vet / author James Herriot who lived close by). Visitor Centre revoked memories of bringing 15yr old Geography pupils here on a freezing windy day to measure footpath erosion and do field sketches which the true geographers stuck to with numb fingers, whilst some 'lightweights' were discovered skiving 'off task' having unauthorised hot chocolate and cake in the cafe. | Chris Pearson | 26/07/2016 |
