Walbut Bridge carries the road from Melbourne to Allerthorpe, and Walbut Lock is immediately adjacent to the bridge.

The Pocklington Canal was constructed at the beginning of the 19th century to transport agricultural goods from the East Riding to the larger urban centres to the south and west. A Bill was placed before Parliament in 1814 and the canal was designed by George Leather Jnr, an experienced navigation engineer who worked on Goole Docks and the Knottingley and Goole Canal. The canal was opened in 1818, running for 9.5 miles from the River Derwent at East Cottingwith to a mile south of Pocklington. The cost was £32,695, which was actually less than the original estimate. Hagg Bridge is one of four bridges crossing the canal designed by George Leather.

From here, you get a nice view of Hagg Bridge, a humpbacked crossing that spans the Pocklington Canal. The bridge looks so picturesque surrounded by the scenery of the Wolds. The fields are vibrant green, dotted with seasonal wildflowers and trees.

Pocklington is a classic English market town, located just 15 miles (24 km) from the city of York. Pocklington is known for its red-roofed buildings and unusual street names. The town has an array of independent shops and places to eat, and a number of attractions worth checking out. Among the town's treasures lies Burnby Hall Gardens, a horticultural haven often referred to as the 'jewel in Yorkshire's crown' – a mandatory stop for anyone visiting.

This is a lovely place to stop on your tour if you need some food and drink at a pleasant inn in a lovely spot. It's a sizeable inn with great staff. I'd recommend to use the seats outside (street-side) for great views over Kirkham Valley, including Kirkham Priory (which is 1 minute ride from here or 5 minutes walking from down the road from here). The inn is just a lovely place to stop and enjoy your life.
