  • Coast to Coast Path
    Walking Holidays in Britain’s most Beautiful Landscapes Coast to Coast Path The Coast to Coast walk was dreamt up by Alfred Wainwright, the famous fell walker and guidebook writer, in 1973. Since then the path has become one of England’s classic long distance walks. It covers 190 miles, from the sea cliffs of St Bees on the Irish Sea, to the fishing village of Robin Hood’s Bay on the North Sea. As the route traverses the country, the two week journey passes through three National Parks and across a real cross-section of England’s best landscapes. It begins in the Lake District, taking in deep sided valleys, lake shores and remote mountain passes. Next is the limestone country of the Yorkshire Dales, famous for its intricate field patterns and dry stone walls. The old market town of Richmond marks the end of the Dales, before the path crosses the Vale of York and rises over the rolling moorland hills of the North York Moors.

  • Glaisdale Old Churchyard Monument Inscriptions
    Glaisdale Old Churchyard Monument Inscriptions The attached listings and accompanying map of the old churchyard have been based on monument transcriptions initially compiled by the Cleveland History Society, to which many thanks are given. As no existing map of the churchyard could be found, this has been remapped in sketch format. It is not strictly accurate but it is hoped that it is sufficient for any interested persons to find any monument. The churchyard has been split into colour-coded sections in a fairly abitrary manner in the hope that this will also help any search. This is a draft version as the inscriptions still have to be verified by inspection. This has been done so far for sections N, S, SW. ©Glaisdale PCC May be copied and used for personal research purposes but may not be onsold. Donations to the church welcomed.
