Walking BritainSt Mary's Church, Cowlam, East Yorkshire
Walk Photo 374001
Caption - A tiny church in a very unusual situation. The approach is through a farmyard, whilst the church has old nissen huts as near neighbours. The church is on the site of the medieval village of Cowlam, which had 14 houses in 1672, but appears to have become deserted by the end of that century. Odd that the church should have been rebuilt in 1852.

Location Map
Yorkshire Wolds
The Yorkshire Wolds are chalk hills that run in an arc from west of Hull to the North Sea coast south of Bridlington. At their eastern end the Wolds produce the high cliffs rising to 420 feet above the sea east of Speeton. To the south the Yorkshire Wolds continue across the River Humber to the Lincolnshire Wolds which have a similar geological character. Most of the Yorkshire Wolds lie in the county of East Yorkshire although some of the hills at western end are in neighbouring North Yorkshire. More Information
