| Walk: | River Wharfe, Bolton Priory, Cavendish Memorial, Strid Wood, Wooden Bridge, Dales Way footpath, Waterfall Bridge | ||
| Start Point: | Bolton Abbey car park | Grid Reference: | SE 072 539 |
| Distance: | 4 miles | Ascent: | 364 feet |
| Time: | 3 hours including stops | ||
| Weather: | Mild with sunny spells | ||
| Comments: | It would be better to park at the Riverside car park further along the road after the Bolton Abbey car park. The Dales Way footpath included many activities for children and is a narrower path than on the other side of the river, making it quite busy. | ||
The side door of the Priory Church, behind which . . .
are the ruins of the Augustinian Priory
The Priory is surrounded . . .
by many ancient headstones and includes Commonwealth War Graves
Luna enjoys cooling off in the River Wharfe . . .
but can't find THE stone
One way only on the stepping stones . . .
so we take the bridge
