- 10;30 Walking Tour around village centre
- 12:15 Return to The Swan
Lunch is not included but members may wish to extend their visit by visiting local pubs or by planning a picnic. Suggest prebooking if staying at The Swan.
Suitable footwear and clothing appropriate for the weather required.
Travel: If coming by car there is a free car park at The Swan – turn up left hand side of the building. The No 62 bus gives a half hourly service from either Ilkley or Silsden/Keighley. The stop is at The Swan.
