The Old Post Office Tea Rooms (is it still open?), by the war memorial in the centre of the quiet village of Commondale nestling in the North York Moors, England, provides refreshment when out walking. Commondale can be reached by railway train on the beautiful River Esk Valley Middlesbrough to Whitby Line in North Yorkshire. More North Yorkshire Moors scenes-notes

The Cleveland Inn, Commondale, provides an alternative break point when walking in this area of North Yorkshire. Just up the hill call in at St Peter's Church for two fine pieces of stained glass window. The church is built of red Commondale brick from the Commondale brickworks of ~ 1850-1950 of which barely a trace remains. There is a bridle path walk to Castleton village, lovely at any time of the year.
