By that I don't mean that the company was dull: far from it. In fact CJ and I had an excellent few hours in the morning having coffee and doing the crossword at Brimstage Hall and Craft Village and mooching round a garden centre. Driving between the two we stopped at the small village of Thornton Hough and at Raby to photograph some of the buildings. The weather was dull but I'm hoping that you will enjoy the photos anyway. I shall definitely return one day to take some more photos. Perhaps I'll even compare them with some of my old photos if I can finds them. The buildings may not have changed but the cars will have!

The last photo brings back lots of pleasant memories from when I was 18+ and often met friends here for the occasional libation. There were wonderful coal fires in the winter and the beer garden in the summer.
