We will meet at the public car park in Muker. From there we will follow rights of way over the top of Kisdon to the Corpse Road. It's quite a climb but we'll take our time, and the views are worth it!
A short road section will bring us to Keld and the lovely waterfalls. We'll stop here for a break so bring a sandwich! If the weather is wet, we may opt for a cafe stop instead.

10th June is the anniversary of the action for which John Lyons won his Victoria Cross. His citation states: “On 10 June 1855 at Sebastopol, in the Crimean Peninsula, Private Lyons picked up a live shell which had fallen among the guard of the trenches, and threw it over the parapet, thus saving many lives”.

“I’m not Dorothy, I’m Dot. Like a decimal point. A full stop. Dot.”
Dot just wants everyone to shut up and leave her alone. Sick of her annoying new foster family she longs to be somewhere else, somewhere far away, somewhere over the rainbow…
