Muker is a small village in Swaledale in the Yorkshire Dales. After
researching my family tree, I found out that some of my ancestors were born in Muker, so I decided to visit.
We arrived in Muker, parked next to the river Swale and
walked up towards the churchyard. The walls as we walked along were
covered with purple flowers. The only tea room in
Muker was closed on a Tuesday. It was Tuesday. So, instead, we drove a bit
further and went to the equally pretty Thwaite.
On the way home, we passed Tan Hill Inn, which is the
highest pub in the UK and had to stop to let the sheep cross the road.
