More about this scene
The road leads down through the village of Lealholm to the bridge over the River Esk in the background. This is always been a popular place for a picnic, as we can see from the parked cars to the right of the bridge. Just upstream from the bridge is a set of stepping stones crossing the river.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
As a child I remember coming to Lealholm with my father. His aunts, the Misses Codling, lived beside, what was then called, the Shepherds Hall and ran a tea room and boarding house from their home. Several years ago I visited with my husband to find that there is now a restaurant at the hall. My cousin still lives in Easington and my father's family grew up around the area. I have nothing but happy memories from those childhood visits.
I was born in the cottage (not on the photograph) attached to the cottage to the right of the picture. I lived there until I left home in 1983. My parents lived there from 1955 until 2007.
I have very many memories of Lealholm and always like to go back and visit.
