A beautiful stretch of woodland along the River Derwent, with views of Kirkham Abbey and the surrounding countryside. Donate to Yorkshire Wildlife Trust to allow them to continue to look after the site.
Beautiful part of Yorkshire especially at sunrise. Old gates and close to the river
Lovley bit of history and was lucky enough to see the trains go past too
Kirkham Abbey is a lovely place and brilliant for watching trains along the York-Scarborough line.
Beautiful old signal box and friendly staff. Nice to see the squirrels 😊
