On a beautiful day, 13 members met at Force Bridge thinking that on such a stunning day that the walk would have been better up in the Lakes, but agreeing that the weather can't be planned. Coffee was taken at Sizergh Castle, and then paths and lanes followed up to Helsington Church and the superb view up the Lyth valley to the fells. The return was via Prizet, Hawes Bridge, and the riverside path back to Sedgwick and Force Bridge. Thanks to Roger for a lovely varied walk over some lesser known paths..

The superb view from Helsington Church.
