This afternoon
4.

A rather odd gate
Public footpath
alongside the River Went
Willowbridge Road
Little Smeaton
(District of Selby)
North Yorkshire


(I only saw it, as I was trying to see if I could photograph the station buildings from the path
529386



It pivots at ground level

529385



It's to the north of the Went, running east

Mindst you, the road bridge itself is more reminiscent of a railway bridge
Then again, the railway did cross on another bridge a few yards away

There is a possibility that I may be heading up to Northumbria, for the day, with daughter, later in the week

If so, I'll keep my eyes open for various items.... particularly (though she doesn't know it yet....) as I'll be driving up along as many sections of The Great North Road as I can:okay:
Ie; where possible, I'll be avoiding the dual-carriageway/m-way sections of the A1, & heading through the towns/villages
Boroughbridge, Catterick, Northallerton are on my list:okay:

Tomorrow, all being well

Plus.... a trip with wife (on her day-off) on Thursday, to (probably) Richmond
The real one!, not the southern pretender

Yes, it happened!!
I only got the Catterick diversion though, albeit with a missed turning, & ending up on the A684 from Leeming Bar to Morton-on-Swale
