Between York and Hull lies Bishop Burton…..a very pretty village renowned for it’s Agricultural College. Having visited the Garden Centre just west of here….to buy a beautiful Rhubarb pot for the garden, we retraced our steps and had lunch here at a very old pub. Beautiful location, beautiful food and a beautiful day all round! :o)
Very handsome Rhubarb pot!
Great pub for lunch!
We took Finn for a walk round the village…where all the cottages were white.
Peeped into a garden full of crocus.
Pretty village green.
Attractive old cottages
A carpet of WinterAconites and Snowdrops
How I love the sunshine colours of Spring!!

Sounds like a terrific break, a day out and lunch in a quaint little (and beautiful) village. Sounds devine!

Oh Janey. I remember Bishop Burton. We used to drive through there a lot when I was young. I love that pond. Thank you for the photos they brought back memories. I'm glad you had a lovely day out. Wish I'd been with you. :o)
