The Coast to Coast Walk was devised by Wainwright in 1973, and despite not having official recognition as a National Trail, is hugely popular amongst walkers. http://www.ramblers.org.uk/info/paths/coasttocoast.html At this point, the walk coming from Richmond briefly follows the tarmac through old Colburn village. The white house in the foreground is Kildavin which, although it doesn't look like it, was originally a chapel. Much improved and extended, it was occupied by my son in the 1990s. Since then it has been even further improved and extended.
