I went down to stop at friends in West Yorkshire recently to see a blues rock band that were recording a live CD/DVD. I think my coughing fit might be at the start of one of the tracks...
The next day (which was beautiful) I took the opportunity to get a few more miles in for the children's cancer charity all this walking is for. I did A really nice circular route. Hope you enjoy the pics.
Started at Ingbirchworth reservoir and met these friendly ponies
This white goose was not happy at me being there
Great Crested Grebe on the reservoir
Onward and upward!
Passing the turbines near Royd Moor
Dropping down to pretty village of Millhouse Green
Heard a Raven Gronking in the distance
Bunnies sunbathing
After Millhouse Green (no pics unfortunately) I could go left or right on a converted railway line. I went right...
Heading North I had to turn off and begin my return east. Typical it took me right past and behind this spooky place. I didn't stop when I was passing it!
Climbed the muddy hill behind it and joined a road passing the turbines and on towards Royd Moor again to make my return.
Long shot towards the lovely curved viaduct at Penistone. If I'd turned left at the converted railway line, I would have passed this. Maybe next time.
If OK, I'll put the Facebook page link and the donation page at the end of this post.
