21 August 2007 - Settle

A morning walk around the town on market day plus some evening pictures.

The cake stall from which we bought our provisions to eat on our walk up Pen-y-Ghent. Very nice they were too.

An ominous black cloud which did not actually produce any rain.

The old Naked Man Cafe. More information here.

Dating from 1663.

This shop had a timeless charm.

An old fashioned silverware shop.

Victoria Hall. Now an indoor market.

Exploring the back streets. There are some really old cottages. This one dating from two years before the great fire of London.

A very old storeroom on the back of Dugdales hardware store.

The town hall

The “Folly” dating from the 17th Century. Once called Tanner Hall. More information here.

Evening.

The town sign.

The river Ribble.

It looked much more tea coloured than this in reality.

The sun disappearing at the end of the day.
