During the current lockdown our opportunities to leave the house are limited, but we can combine visiting a supermarket and taking exercise by visiting Kirkby Lonsdale.
Yesterday we visited the market town and enjoyed a circular walk which started and finished at Booths car park. There had been overnight snow and the surrounding hills had a good dusting.
