Nettleton Hill

I consider this to be one of Huddersfield's finest viewpoints, and just across Scapegoat Hill is another of them - Perhaps I'll bring you this one soon? Just under my snout is Longwood Edge, the home of the Dusty Miller public house (we don't go there very often, but it's a bit of a landmark). Lovely frost on lovely millstone grit drystone wall.

North Dean Wood

A field full of cows and a disused quarry lying just outside the confines of North Dean Wood above the village of Copley in the Calder Valley. Lovely lumps of millstone grit and some VERY muddy fields which lead toward Norland Moor.

Turgate Delph

Here I stand on Norland Moor. A rocky outcrop called Turgate Delph which overlooks Butterworth End Lane (near the Moorcock Inn). I am guessing that the buildings you can see on the right are the village of Sowerby, which comes as news to me that it's not the same place as Sowerby Bridge!!

Buckstones

Standing at Buckstones (the intersection of the A640 and B6114) with Pule Hill and March Haigh Reservoir behind me. Oddly enough, for the first time that I can remember, there is a distinct lack of water in March Haigh Reservoir. If anyone knows why this is then let me know!! This shot has the added advantage of showing a gorgeous lump of millstone grit. Slurp!!

Upper Greetland

Not sure if these woods have an actual name or not, but I can't find it if they do. All I can tell you is that these trees are right next to Crawstone Hall and I was spotted near the footbridge over the stream. There's something satisfying about walking amongst the leaf litter.

Blakeley Reservoir

The poorer cousin of three reservoirs. Most people know about Butterley and Wessenden, above the picturesque village of Marsden on the very edge of the Peak District. I enjoyed sniffing around these parts, and the waterfalls and streams that come down from the hills above.
