Not sure where this is?

Had a lovely morning visiting a school and then set the Sat Nav to take me to Southport. It took me along lots of country lanes I didn't know. I crossed the canal and the sun was shining brightly so I decided there was time for a short walk along the tow path which is where I took this. I'm glad a stopped as it was the best sun of the day.
No more putting off writing the Christmas cards now!!!!!
