Gumley via Debdale Wharfe , Foxton and Foxton Locks. Circular walk approx 5 mls. 15/11/2013



After meeting at Cosby we drove to Gumley for the start of our walk. 






What a glorious November morning it was as twenty one walkers gathered for a walk from Gumley down to Debdale Wharfe  and across to Foxton.
Setting off and lots to talk about

Sun does interfere with some snaps but 'hey ho'



Cows grazing 


It was heavy going around by the styles but the natives were very friendly.
Just put your head up a little PLEASE !!!!




Leaving the fields we headed through some farm buildings for the village of Foxton. 



We joined the canal's pathway at Foxton for the short walk to Foxton locks.

 



 
At Foxton Locks we had our break .

Just passing

After our break we went to inspect the renovations to the locks. As you can see, no water so no boats today. 


 






The sun reflecting off cobwebs strewn across the meadow 



Our walk ended back in Gumley from Foxton Locks. Everybody enjoyed the fantastic views that we had seen on such a crisp, bright November morning.
