Looking east the view of Barnoldby village presents a peaceful picture in a quiet interlude on what is a busy road.
Manor House, Barnoldby-le-Beck. As seen from Barton Street (A18), this large house, the grounds of which contain a large garden pond which could be classed as a lake, seems to have been part of a large park complex that once existed in this area.
St. Helen's Church. Seen from Church Lane, surrounded by trees and spring blossom.
