YORKSHIRE NATURALISTS AT 
KNARESBOROUGH. 
THE well-wooded slopes of that picturesque portion of the valley of 
the River Nidd which runs from the Viaduct in a winding course 
to Goldsborough Mill, formed the scene of the rroth excursion of 
the Yorkshire Union, on Saturday, July 14th, 1894. A typical July 
day, the attendance of naturalists was large and fairly representative 
of the different sections.

Luckily most of the members had ere this found their way to the 
Elephant and Castle Hotel, where tea was awaiting them, but some 
were more unfortunate and received a severe drenching before 
shelter could be obtained.
