Cleveland Hills Weekend - Day Two: The Lord Stones

Sunday morning of our short break in Bilsdale dawned somewhat overcast. Weather like this is always a mixed blessing for me. On the one hand, a dry but overcast day can make for pleasant walking, particularly if a route entails a number of ascents. But then dull days with poor light are not ideal for photography. Having suffered a little from sunburn the previous day though, I wasn't too disappointed to be walking in much cooler conditions. After a most enjoyable breakfast (the kind that sets you up for the entire day), we checked out of the Buck Inn and established that it was no problem to leave our car in their car park for the day. The first part of our walk retraced Saturday's route, heading up onto Cold Moor and along to join the Cleveland Way above Broughton Bank.
