On the occasion of the Summer Solstice here’s Peter Brook with Shep ‘Watching the Sun Rise in the Pennines’. Not the popular pilgrimage to mark the occasion at Stonehenge of course, but no doubt a similarly uplifting experience on a crisp, cold winter morning ‘up North’.

‘England - In Ruins but Beautiful - Taking a Photograph’ is a typical Peter Brook, portraying one of his favourite locations, the abandoned farmhouse of Raistrick Greave on Heptonstall Moor. Here, however, the setting is a warm summer’s evening with not a flake of snow in sight.

No county in England carries its past quite like North Yorkshire.
Written into every moor, every market town, every stone built village is a
sacred heritage that refuses to change. – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England

Happy Sunday! Each morning we open a window to the Dales and share some of our favourite views, like this one across Upper Wensleydale, just above Hawes.

ALT A bright winter landscape featuring gently rolling hills dusted with frost. In the foreground, a stone wall curves across a pale, frosty field. At the centre stands a pair of leafless trees silhouetted against the open countryside. In the background, layered hills rise under a clear blue sky, with scattered buildings and fields visible in the distance.
One of my favourite, challenging walks!
The Yorkshire Three Peaks are fantastic walks in their own right – find out about walking each peak individually, here 👇

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the Settle-Carlisle railway. The Ribblehead Viaduct is one of the most iconic pieces of Victorian railway engineering in the UK, carrying the Settle–Carlisle line across Batty Moss.

Such a magnificent structure
It's the 150th anniversary of the Settle-Carlisle railway, which opened for passengers in 1876. The final stone of the Ribblehead Viaduct, which was designed by John Sydney Crossley of the Midland Railway, had been laid by the end of 1874.
