Day 2
Day
two broke sunny and lovely. Back into Preston down the old tram road
then steeply up through Avenham Park past Bank Parade where my gran
used to live, and Winkley Square where my father's office was. I pass
the record shop [long gone] where we would queue for the latest
Beatles singles, the marvellous covered market and St Walburge church with its steeple, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_St._Walburge,_Preston, the highest of any parish church in England, then reach the start of the
Lancaster Canal which I follow towards Kirkham. I see a Tern, one of
the most beautiful of birds, flitting above the water.
