We set off from Stockport in miserable drizzle, but by the time we got to Crosby the rain had stopped. 16 of us and two dogs assembled at Crosby Marine Park from where we walked to the beach to view the Gormley Statues. There are 100 of them but as it was high tide many of them were submerged.
We proceeded northwards along the prom and then through the sand dunes. Eventually we reached Formby where a well deserved ice cream was consumed. We walked round several asparagus fields for which the area is famous as depicted by the statue of the asparagus picker.
