Bridge Story

On the way from Levens, Lake District to Aysgarth, North Yorkshire, nature called and we were hard pressed to look for public toilet to ease the pressure.

Alas, this part of England proved to be unfriendly and we had no choice but to answer nature call by doing the private business in the open field.

Somewhere by the road side overlooking this long bridge, we did the unthinkable!

Just before leaving Windermere for Aysgarth, we stopped by this picturesque old bridge.

The couple who operate the Field House B & B in Aysgarth recommended strongly that we paid a visit to the nearby waterfall. We did after taking a long walk through the grazing field.

This is the bridge which is just downstream of the waterfall.

Access to the waterfall is by way of depositing a one pound coin into the unmanned Honesty Box.

Honesty box! Love it! I wonder where the proceeds go to, though?

Not exactly sure. I believe it goes to whoever is responsible for the upkeep of the track leading to this waterfall as well as its surrounding.
