Another Walk in Silloth and a Disappearing Hotel

This was the Skinburness Hotel when we walked at Silloth on 1st June 2017 and the photo below was it when John and I walked the route today. I don't know what will happen to the site but the hotel was advertised for sale at £250K about 10 years ago so somebody has lost a lot of money.
John was not available in June so we both decided to go there today with both Tom & Peter unavailable.

It was a fairly misty day but very pleasant for walking. 
Silloth main street and one of the few towns left with cobbled streets 
Skinburness Creek at the furthermost point of the walk. We ended our walk at Mrs. Wilsons Cafe on Silloth High Street and  had a fabulous lunch at a reasonable price with excellent service.

Are those setts rather than cobbles? I only ask.
