West Heslerton Brow to Sharpe Howe

Penultimate day of the Wolds Way and after some overnight rain we were soaked to the knees within a few dozen yards. As the summer has progressed the undergrowth has become significantly more of an issue - often chest high grass and brush and we've had over head height bracken on a couple of sections. Some expansive views today as we approach the sea
