Flamborough Fish Shed

Yorkshire Wolds Bike Tour: This black-painted timber shed in Flamborough had a rusty orange corrugated iron roof and its own fish weather vane. It was a windy day, blowing me downhill to North and South Landing....

Black Jack Thwing

 
Yorkshire Wolds Bike Tour: Thwing village pump, known as "Black Jack". During WW2, it's ironwork was saved from being melted down by being hidden in a barn. Rediscovered under the hay in the 60s, the timber, black-painted pump was restored to its former glory

Broad Beans


 
They may have luxurious fur-lined pods, but they still take some shelling.....
