Wowden Howden

I arrived at Howden and it just bowled me over with perfection. This is why I did this walk. After the spectacular Humber Bridge I didn't expect another magnificent sight for a bit. As I came into the town there was the most beautiful Minster, tumbled down in parts and totally spellbinding in that shabby dilapidated ecclesiastical ruins kind of way. I stayed at The Minster View Hotel which was a pub rather than a hotel. They assured me they were a very quiet pub with a few regulars and old folk who liked to retire at about 9pm. They were fibbing. At about 4am the punters called time upon themselves with the landlord pleading "You're not going home already are you?" I set off for Selby the next day with the worst hangover in the world.
