Friday 23rd October
Today is our 33rd wedding anniversary so we decided to have a day out in Richmond. The castle is very impressive when looking up from the river.

We climbed to the top of the castle keep and saw stunning views of the town and surrounding countryside in all directions.

In one corner was a beautiful hidden garden full of spicy scents.


From the walls we could see this bridge crossing the River Swale surrounded by autumnal colour.

We walked down by the river and enjoyed this stretch in particular.

As we were looking at the waterfall we noticed big fish, possibly salmon, attempting to leap up it .
