The Lakes/Dales Day 13. Moving

 Spent the morning packing the car and getting the van ready for winter. A quick stop off at Plumgarths to pick up some sourdough starter from Lovingly Artisan and the makings of a picnic which was excellent and eaten on the way to Sedburgh and Dent. Dentdale is beautiful but just as we arrived in the village the heavens opened. Sustained by a cup of tea we continued up to Dent Head being suitably impressed by the railway viaducts; amazing Victorian technology and craftmanship. We continued on to Hawes and then over to Wharfedale, the weather and light improving all the time. The Fox and Hounds turned out to be 'a cosy inn of our sort' and we had a delightful evening in the bar which was much as we remembered it from 1986. Our room was superbly comfortable.
