Aye it’s not a bad place to call home these days! The Lake District will always be my proper home but I do enjoy living here these days. We have friends who live Scorton way, North Cowton to be precise. We ultimately would like to end up that way as it’s a bit more rural than where we are now.

Scorton seems to have gone a bit up market these last 15 years.  It was all council houses and workers cottages when my grandparents lived there.  Lots of farms etc.  Now it seems the smaller landowners have sold out and there are a few Stud farms there or wealthy folk who have bought in.  
 

Lost count of the number of times my grandads onions or marrows got first place at Scorton Feast. ;)

 

Although, I havent been back to the Uk for obvious reason this last couple of years.  I used to do a fair bit of shooting on the farms around Scorton and the Cowtons with my old man.

 

Happy times.

Been meaning to get a pic of this tree for ages. 
Mature oak butchered to fit in with house renovation. Must be something saying they can’t remove. 
is this what they call raise the crown and open the canopy?
