A hot day in the Cheviots 13th july

A very hot sunny Saturday saw us walking with friends in the Cheviots around Wooler, the heat felt where we left the cars was replaced by a pleasant breeze as we climbed higher. Lunch stop was at Langley Crags overlooking the Harthope Valley, the air was filled with the sounds of Curlew and Skylarks. Time to head back via Middleton Old Town ,where a hot, dry,sunny bank held a good selection of plants including Maiden Pinks, Harebells, Spear Thistle and Bird's-foot Trefoil.
