A group of eleven well-wrapped-up walkers gathered at the Cross Keys pub in Dunnington for a four mile walk through the countryside around the village.
Leaving Dunnington, we set off to ascend the curiously-named Noddle Hill. On a clear day, we were told by our walk leader, Irene Watson, you get good views over York and the East Riding from here...
We continued on tracks and field paths past Mount Pleasant Farm to Holtby and the nature reserve at the village pond which boasts a floating duck house worthy of a Member of Parliament.
After a short coffee break, our walk took us past the Old Rectory at Holtby and back to Dunnington for lunch.
