Into the Forest ……

Always a pleasure to break off from copywriting, drive into Bowland and stop off at the Inn at Whitewell for lunch. It’s not just that Whitewell is such a fantastic pub, with wonderful food, beer, views and ambience, it’s that when you

My Yorkshire Book of the Year – An Almshouse for Linton by Jane Houlton

My Yorkshire Book of 2018 has to be Jane Houlton’s fascinating An Almshouse for Linton, an architectural history of one of the Yorkshire Dales’ most iconic buildings. The Fountaine Almshouse at Linton-in-Craven, a masterpiece of Baroque architecture, has long intrigued

Craven at War

There’s only a few days left to catch Craven Museum’s excellent ‘Craven at War’ exhibition. Its focus on the Home Front during the 1914-18 war means many little known areas are presented centre stage. The arrival of thousands of Belgian

Ramsons and Jack-by-the-Hedge

Sometimes it’s good to break off from the heritage copywriting and just go for a wander in the woods of Yorkshire. After all, this is the best time of the year for it. The leaves have fully unfurled now, and

Mythic Wharfedale

 A wander into Wharfedale today – my favourite valley of them all. It’s not just the beauty of the scenery, or the built heritage; it’s the stories that cling to the place. The Wharfe is the domain of Verbeia, Roman

A visit to Wigtownshire

We visited Wigtownshire, the wonderful little county at the west of Galloway. I had an excuse: Ian Niall (aka John McNeillie), one of my favourite writers, was a native of this area. My wife’s reasoning was that it was once
