We crossed Eshton Moor before joining the Aire and had elevenses sitting by the river at Newfield Bridge. Then gently up the stream to Airton, with its imposing converted Mill.

Day 6 (Gargrave to Malham)
Distance: 7 miles
Cumulative: 80.5 miles
Gates: 26
Stiles: 15
Another bright, sunny day, but fortunately a short one! At Gargrave we met up with three of Tom's friends from school - Ben Cooper, Smith Middleton and Jacob Jackson - who were to walk the stage with us. The road ran through shady woods to start, then onto Craven farm land where making hay and silage was in full swing.

Hanlith provided a steep little climb to a lovely shaded lunch spot above the weir, in sight of Malham.
The morning's walk had been a complete delight!
