Amberley church lies between the castle and the village at the western end of a ridge of high ground, which is about one mile north of Houghton Bridge.
The yacht is passing by the north side of the Broad, with 1930s bungalows along the frontage. The yacht is typical of those developed since the 1930s for use on the Broads.
The livestock market was originally held in the High Street on Tuesdays, before being moved to North Street in 1865; thirty years later it moved again to this site in Woodbridge Road.
This dizzying view from the summit of High Tor looks north towards Matlock.
The castle had two main towers and a further tower guarding the entrance on the north side.There was no keep. Kentish Ragstone was brought across the River Thames for the construction.
From a point further north-east, this view looks towards the gatehouse past the elaborate fountain which still remains today and the entrance gates beyond the thatched bothy, now replaced.
By the 1960s, only craft drawing less than 21 ins of water could attempt the river north of Stourport, and even then their passage into Bewdley was blocked by a shoal about one mile south of the town.
The ridgetop village of Bolsterstone stands at nearly 1,000 feet above the sea on the edge of the Peak District moors north-west of Sheffield.
This narrow road is still the main highway along the north Norfolk coast. The caravan site on the right is on top of the Runton cliffs.
We are looking north towards the church. On the right, we can see the carriage entrance of the Red Lion next to Carter's the jeweller's; further on is Barclays Bank, which was re-fronted in 1822.
The town has not spread to the north beyond this point for the last 500 years.
The Cobb is part of the isolated North Wall, and was built in the 14th
Ripon is the farthest north a barge can travel without being removed from the water. This short, 2-mile canal was opened in 1773, and is an extension of the River Ure.
Newark's position on the Great North Road and the River Trent attracted industry including flour milling, maltings, brewing, an iron works, leather working, and even a glue factory.
South Street is to the left, with the Golden Lion and North Street to the right.
Corve Street is the main road leading north to Shrewsbury. Notice the way that the road suddenly becomes that little bit wider.
Headingley had once been a small village to the north of Leeds and its population in 1775 was estimated at 667 people.
The buildings on the left survive, now with large shops built out at ground floor level, but the corner building on the north side of Lumley Road, to the left of the Clock Tower, has been (badly) replaced
There is a similar walk on the north bank, and on summer evenings there are many pleasure boats on the water. This picture was obviously not a summer evening!
With the slopes of Black Combe and the Lakeland mountains to the north, Millom occupies an enviable position, and was the home of the Lakeland poet Norman Nicholson.
Little Sutton lies just north-west of Ellesmere Port, and in recent years, along with Great Sutton, it has more or less coalesced with it.
Barford St John is a typical example of the remoteness of some of the villages in north-west Oxfordshire.
The tree-lined B4017, running south to north, bisects a village green that is reputed to be one of the finest in the county.
