Pocklington Canal Autumn

This is the part of the canal that runs east - west. From the Hull roundabout, take the B1228 for Elvington. Go through Sutton on Derwent and cross both the river Derwent and the Pocklington canal. Go on to the village of Melbourne where you can park by the side of the road near the "Melbourne" pub. There is a broad track just before the pub which takes you down to the canal past a small parking area for barges. From here you can walk the towpath in either direction. Apart from the one of the Canal Head, most of these autumn photos were taken between here and Bielby.

On the way back through Sutton on Derwent watch out for the sun setting over the river there (see the last photo in this set).
