This photo was taken by the canal in Skipton, Yorkshire. Skipton is a lovely old town, which has a castle, the canal, a small steam railway nearby, and lots of character! I love it there. My memory as a child is of going to learn to swim in the baths in Skipton, every Tuesday night, by bus from Burley-in-Wharfedale where we lived. I guess I was only about 6 years old at the time. Of course in recent years I have just gone there for the day etc, or with friends, so it has a special place in my heart. And this photo is especially lovely with the wonderful autumn colours surrounding the canal and canal boats!
