A look at Barrow on Humber.

The problem I had last night with the unwanted popup seems to have solved itself. It's gone. 

So, after leaving Barton on Sunday I did a little tour of the top corner of North Lincolnshire. There isn't a lot to see, it's mainly agricultural, with a lot of the waters edge out of bounds because of the massive docks and warehouses. Camera at the ready, there must be something of interest to take a few photo's of. Let's go to Barrow on Humber. This is the Church of Holy Trinity. It stands proud on a hillock in the centre of the village. Pity it wasn't open, I would have liked a look inside. Take a look at the Parish Council web site. 

The dates on some of the buildings tell us how old they are. 

This building has been turned into holiday lets. Each cottage has it's own front door. There doesn't seem to be much happening inside when I looked in the windows. 

This is a huge Village Hall for a small village.

An interesting entrance. I like the coloured glass in the front door inside the porch. 

Lovely village shop. 

There is a map next to the bus shelter in the Market Place. 

Barrow is famous for John Harrison. He was a carpenter and a clock maker. He invented the Marine Chronometer. 

There are two pubs. This one, 

And this one. 

This shop has items of historical interest in it's windows. 

There is a small park. Nice for a stroll, with a playground for young children. 

I had about an hour walking around. It had a nice friendly feel about it. Where to next? Come back and I will reveal the next village. 

Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona
