Wealso stopped off at Wetherby, which we have visited before. I featured its War Memorial here, but took more photos this time

Memorial:-

Great War dedication “In honour and everlasting memory of the men of Wetherby who fell in the Great War 1914-1918” and name plaques:-

World War 2 Dedication and name plaques:-

The River Wharfe was quite high when we visited in 2014. It was much lower this time. The last time we couldn’t see the weir! Note the metal salmon leaping from just below the wheel:-

We made a further stop on the first day on the way down to the Holland ferry. At Wetherby.

There’s a nicely situated car park hard by the River Wharfe.

There were geese on the river.

On the way down on our trip we stopped off at Wetherby just to have a bite to eat and stretch the legs. I didn’t spot much in the way of Deco but there was a nice bridge over the River Wharfe.

As you can see the river was quite high, in fact flooding the banks so that you couldn’t walk on the bank underneath the bridge.

Just to the right of the above photo Wetherby War Memorial stands on the bridge parapet – see photo on the left below. I’m not too keen on the ones which feature angels like this. (Edited to add, figure of Victory/Nike.) A day later I also photographed Lincoln’s War Memorial, on the right below, a more intricate and to my mind more æsthetic design. A couple more photos of Wetherby are on my flickr.
