Church of St Andrew by the River Esk. Love the shape, its a unique rectangular church from 1776. A very different style from traditional churches. Had to cross the river by suspension bridge to get to it, which, for someone not good with heights, was quite an adventure.
I do like these curly tomato growing supports spotted in a #greenhouse while exploring Hayton Village Gardens open day for the NGS @nationalgardenscheme
