We had a longer walk from our railway station up to School Aycliffe watertower which we sketched. Then down the lane and along fields to the stepping stones over Redhouse beck, we sketched around here to the sound of the gurgling water. The highlight being a farmer tipping his cap to Sheila, what a gentleman. Up over the hill to join Walkers Lane and down the railway path.
The others went to the station and I stayed behind to record another railway bridge on this line. I got to chat to a few people including 101 year old Bill Cooksey, the trike guy.
If you would like to join us, we meet in Newton Aycliffe, or surrounding areas, on a Thursday morning. For more information contact Bill Lowery on 01325 311225.
