It’s almost mid afternoon but the Calder Valley’s still covered in haze which is giving the Southern side a ghostly appearance, a Yorkshire Brigadoon if you like. We’ve been pottering around and finished our chores, so now it’s time for a Sunday constitutional. This is the view across the valley and over Sowerby Bridge as we walked up to Savile Park

Crocus’s provide a riot of colour along the roadside.

A bit farther on we dropped through Scare Woods to begin our descent to the canal.
