Lund Head Farm, Barrowby View west from where the bridleways Marsh Lane and Keepers' Walk meet. Marsh Lane is the track in the foreground. Turn left onto it for a splendid half mile stretch of singletrack between hedgerows.

Which way? Here the Marsh Lane bridleway splits. Left to Addlethorpe Wood and Sicklinghall; right towards Beck View Farm and Clap Gate. Either way, just follow the blue-topped posts. I turned right.

Bridleway to Spofforth This shot looks back up the last stretch of a 3-mile length of bridleway from Spofforth. The route is a mixture of double-track (like this), singletrack and indistinct lines alongside field boundaries. Great fun. View looking north from the minor road near Clap Gate.

Signpost at Spring Moor This signpost is at the crossroads of Spring Lane/Wharfe Lane/Moor Lane just to the north of Netherby. Note "Yorks WR" (West Riding of Yorkshire) on the top of the post. I think the land to the north of the River Wharfe hereabouts is now in North Yorkshire. The illegible arm of the signpost is pointing up Moor Lane to Barrowby.
