ReplyDeleteI grew up near Keighley, so I know Skipton well. It's a great market town. It has everything! But you didn't go to Whitakers for their violet and rose creams or the sugar mice! Love the apothecary - is it the one that used to be in the arcade, or is it a new one? Ah. Makes me feel homesick. And you are lucky to live in Swaledale - probably one of my favourite places on the planet! Glad to make your acquaintance and find your lovely blog. Rosie D
ReplyDeleteHi Linda - visiting from Edinburgh again! The confectioners in Skipton is Whitakers, and they are half way up the main street on the right, if you are facing the castle. On the corner of the road that leads to the big car park. I blog about it here:
