Walking near Silloth

 Taking a walk daily helps to clear the mind and stretch the muscles, especially when you are sitting in a vehicle for hours on end, driving from what seemed one end of Great Britain to the other.

These little calves were our across the road neighbors. The farmer moved them in one day and they were quite quiet until my son got them to start eating out of his hand. He took them little treats and they started meeting him with loud bawling.






The little fellow with his mouth open was one of the loudest of the bunch! He didn't want to come close though, bawled like he was telling on the other calves!
 

My son adopted a few  of the cows. He fed them frequently, and would pet them. The babies got very used to him, and would moo for him to come play.



The lane in front of the cottage, at the end is Coldmire Road. I don't actually know what this road is actually called. I don't know that it really has a name. It is never named on street signs... and the address is not a street, but the name of the cottage. If you turn the opposite direction, you go to Abbeytown.
























This is one side of the entry gates that belonged to the old manner house that  once stood on these grounds. It was burned down, as so many of the old houses were.



House on the way to Abbeytown. This was at one time a rectory, just around the corner is Foulsyke's Farm
