Day 7 - Burbanks to Orton, 7 hours, 20 km

We had a really interesting Faulty Towers experience at the Hawsewater Hotel. Out advice is to avoid this place.
Raining through the night and still raining in the morning. Taxi to Burbanks and hit the trail. Th e rain persisted but we were walking along small trails and paths through the farms. We arrived at Shap Abbey above, then Shap. Unfortunately because it was Sunday the local cafe was closed. We had tea at the pub then headed off over over the moors. By now the wind had picked up and the rain was heavier. We encountered sleet and hail....
