Had dinner with Michaels cousins Michelle and Brian and Aunty Cath, at 86 Aunty C looks fantastic. We had a great dinner at the Kings Arms pub in Reeth, after a huge liquerice, cherry and blueberry ice cream!!
Today we go to Richmond. This is a much easier day’s walk across rolling countryside passing Marrick Priory, Marske village and Whitecliffe wood. We arrive in Richmond at lunchtime and then continue (to reduce the following day’s distance) to Bolton on Swale in the afternoon. Short transfer back to Richmond.
• Founded by the Normans Richmond grew around the castle built on the ‘riche-mont’ or ‘strong-hill’ that gave the town its name and whose massive keep dominates all other buildings around.
• Visit the church in Bolton on Swale to see the monument to Henry Jenkins who died in 1670 at the age of 169.
• Richmond has several banks, shops, pubs and cafes.
• 08:45 start from Reeth.
• Arrive Bolton on Swale approx 16:45 for transfer back to Richmond
