Walking round Cawood - some local views

{just before it disappears into the culvert} {side view of the banqueting hall}
This is Bishopdyke, still open at the top end of the village, Sherburn Street on the left, garth on the right Cawood Castle from the garth - side view of the banqueting hall - and just peeping round the corner on the right you can see Bank House
{open day at the Castle again!} {looking from Church End}
Looking from the top of the Castle towards Cawood church, over the top of Cardinal's Court, which was built in what had been part of the castle Looking up Thorpe Lane from the junction with Church End. Some of the houses in Water Row back on to Thorpe Lane - also site of cornmill, now cottages
{walking along the river bank to Kelfield} {no sheep on the bank today!}
Cawood Castle and Cardinal's Court seen from the Kelfield side river bank; Bank House right of centre Further down the river bank; halfway to Kelfield
{we plough the fields and scatter ..}
Ploughing the fields - this is the area which disappears under the floods; Bank House and Cawood Castle across the other side of the river
