Footpath leading to Dunkirk Farm Such was the juiciness of this pasture, the suction of the mud led me to inadvertently leaving my right boot behind - firmly clamped in ooze.  Possibly the wettest pasture in Wharfedale, which conceals a public footpath that leads to the photographed farm of Dunkirk.
