Today’s Walks Today’s starting points: 1. A: A6068, Cowling 2. B+, B, C: Haworth Dick Delf Hill with Dave Colbert Grade A Distance 11¾ miles / 19km Climbing 2160ft / 660m Just who the heck was Dick Delf to have a hill named after him? A Dutch Yorkshireman who invented an exquisite blue pottery but then found a ‘T’ added to the end of his surname to disguise his origins? Or a Yorkshire Dutchman, uncle to that bloke Heathcliffe? Despite extensive research by Dr Bente Kanin-Vakmester from Tromso University, who concluded he must have been a member of the ancient Horveht race of pygmies from Lakeland (a theory subsequently rubbished by our very own academic Professor John Warner - see ‘Footprints’ January to June 1992), no one really knows, and I guarantee that by the end of this walk you will be none the wiser either! We start near Cowling on the A6068 and follow the Pennine Way southwards over Wolf Stones (1,453ft / 443m) and down into the Worth Valley, then up past Withins (no Kate Bush impressions allowed) to said hill. The descent to Haworth traverses Penistone Hill. If the clag is down, we will take an alternative route from Withins to Haworth past Bronte Bridge. A Bit of a Bronte with Barry Hayhurst Grade B+ Distance 9¼ miles / 14.9km Climbing 1507ft / 459m An undulating walk across peaty moorland, a little steep climbing ... in shortish bursts and some muddy bits , not much in the way of shelter, a bit exposed to the elements if the weather is inclement. From the rear of the church of St Michael and All Angels we go past the graveyard onto part of the Bronte Way, passing farms, bypassing Hope and moving on up to Penistone Hill . Coming down the other side we cross Moor Side Lane before dropping down to cross Haworth Moor up to Spa Hill. From here, turning, we drop down, up Wether Hill and down to Round Hill. This next part is a rather muddy, narrow path steep and rocky in places, but we are rewarded at the bottom as we cross the so called “Bronte Bridge”. It is now up a shortish, reasonably maintained footpath to the top where, turning south, we walk through fields before dropping down to cross more moorland, muddy and rocky in places, eventually crossing Rough Dike via stepping stones and climbing up the other side to a well maintained path along to “Top Within”. From here we retrace our footsteps along a wide track heading in the direction of Stanbury with Ponden reservoir to our left and Lower Laithe reservoir in front. Before reaching this we turn and drop down, crossing fields and climbing down to cross a foot bridge with a steep climb up to meet the Bronte Way again. We then join the Millennium Way, skirting around Penistone Hill Country Park, back to Haworth which has an abundance of refreshment establishments amidst its cobbled streets. Haworth, Bronte Bridge and Withins with Jim & Phyl Grade B Distance 8 miles / 12.9km Climbing1200ft / 366m Leaving the coaches at Bronte Village car park (coaches are free) GR030370 we will make our way to the nearby facilities. Heading south back towards the car park we take a right turn onto a footpath leading to Penistone Hill and, eventually, Moorside Lane which we cross to join the Millennium Way. We soon join the Bronte Way and come to Bronte Bridge and the waterfalls. We will take a short break here before scaling the facing embankment to join the Pennine Way. We now head west to Withins and lunch. The return route takes us via Forks House to Bronte Bridge where we retrace our steps on the Bronte Way to Penistone Hill but staying on the road to pass the cemetery lying to the north of the hill. A short field walk takes us back to Haworth. The Railway C hildren’s Walk with Kevin Alty Grade C Distance 5 miles / 8km Climbing 550ft / 168m Starting from the information centre (used as the Butcher’s shop) in Haworth, we make our way to the ABC steps (guess why they're called that). We make our way to Oakworth station where lots of the filming took place and where Perks’ cottage can be seen. We go round "HOOTs" corner past the cottages used for the paper chase and get a glimpse of Mytholmes tunnel. We cross the bridge where Roberta held the chalk board at the end of the film. On reaching Haworth station, we will have lunch. So far we have had good footpaths but now we have grassy paths leading towards Oxenhope station, where, crossing over the train track, we have a short steep climb to” Three Chimneys” ( home of the Railway Children) from where it’s back to Haworth for shops etc. Please help to keep the coaches clean by removing muddy boots. Please check that you have all your belongings and take newspapers etc. away with you. Thank you. .

  • March 2005 to 2018
    March 2005 - 2018 March 2018 During this cold wet month, a single Osprey passed over Oxenhope (7th) and another caught the attention of local crows as it flew north over the Wharfe Valley (15th). Three Whooper Swans were seen on Lower Barden Reservoir (21st) and eight others spent a few hours feeding on flooded fields at Silsden (17th), this was on the same day that eight Shovelers were located. During the month, a single male Shoveler spent a couple of weeks on Yeadon Tarn and three others visited Silsden Reservoir (21st). Little Egrets have become more common in the area, particularly in the Aire Valley. A single visited Stockbridge and two others were reported as they fed alongside the by-pass at Silsden. Redshanks also found conditions here to their liking, as 15 were feeding on the flooded fields (19th). Water Rails were, as expected, seen at Stockbridge, but the only Pochard in the area was a female at Yeadon Tarn. At Park Dam, Low Moor, a pair of Gadwall and a pair of Mandarins were seen, whilst three were three pairs of the latter on the Wharfe between Ilkley and Knotford Nook. Snipe had begun their courtship flights over Glovershaw where 25 pairs of Lapwings were established on their traditional breeding grounds. Prior to dispersal, Golden Plovers were reported in flocks of between 30 and 50 at Glovershaw, Hawksworth Moor, Moorside Lane, Oxenhope and on the by-pass at Silsden. Tree Sparrows were located at Dobrudden Farm, Baildon and in Judy Woods whilst Tawny Owls were breeding in Shipley Glen and at Stockbridge.

  • Walk the Way in a Day Walk 40 Top Withins and Walshaw Dene
    Walk the Way in a Day Walk 40 Top Withins and Walshaw Dene An enjoyable walk following the Pennine Way beside 1965 - 2015 reservoirs and over moorland, returning by an old pack- horse route. Among the many features associated with the Brontë sisters is the isolated ruin of Top Withins (the inspiration for the Earnshaw residence in ‘Wuthering Heights’). Length: 13¾ miles (22 kilometres) Ascent: 1,985 feet (605 metres) Highest Point: 448 metres (1,470 feet) Map(s): OS Explorer OL Map 21 (‘South Pennines’) (North Sheet) Starting Point: Gorple & Walshaw Dean reservoirs parking area, above Hebden Dale (SD 947 323) Facilities: Inn nearby. Website: http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/pennine-way/route/walk- way-day-walk-40-top-withins-and-walshaw-dene Walshaw Dean Reservoirs The starting point is located 5 miles (8 kilometres) north-west of Hebden Bridge, close to the Pack Horse Inn on the Colne road. The first part of the walk follows the Pennine Way for 2 miles (3¼ kilometres) around the Walshaw Dean reservoirs. A finger sign points up a stony path, joining an access road heading north-east towards the reservoirs. The Pennine Way actually follows a corridorised path beside the tarmac track, although the latter is preferred by many walkers. Ignoring another track leading off to the right, continue towards the lower reservoir, where a finger sign marks a right turn over the dam. Following a gravel path above the eastern shore, ignore a hardcore track starting at the middle dam and instead continue along a narrow strip of land between the reservoir and a drain.

  • Dog Has His Day at Fields of Vision Launch
    Dog has his day at Fields of Vision launch A sheep dog trial was held on Simon Mansfield’s One Man and His dog artwork field in Stanbury to officially launch the Fields of Vision land art project - part of the Yorkshire Festival 2014. The celebration took place at the viewpoint on Cemetery Road, Haworth and was attended by representatives of the Fields of Vision team, Worth Valley Young Farmers, Worth the Tour and the local community. The bad weather was no barrier for hardy farmer Ian Ibbotson and his sheep dog, who were able to bring Simon’s artistic vision to life and successfully drive their sheep into the outstretched hand of the shepherd figure – creating a true piece of living art. Fields of Vision is designed to animate the route of Day 2 of the Grand Depart of the 2014 Tour de France and is now being delivered by a bespoke partnership co-ordinated by rural regeneration company Pennine Prospects and comprising the Worth Valley Young Farmers, Worth the Tour, local artistic producers, and the Bingley-based STRI, (Sports Turf Research Institute) among others. Henrietta Duckworth, Executive Producer of the Yorkshire Festival 2014 said: “We have all different art forms including music – from classical to rock n roll - we have film, theatre, sculpture, crafts – and, unlike any other festival, we have land art. Not only has this project attracted great national and international artists, but it has also encouraged local people to get involved and now everyone can come along and see the art.” She added: “We do have to thank our sponsors Yorkshire Water for supporting this project - and for making sure we’ve had the most excellent growing period – let’s celebrate the rain as it’s a critical part of this work!” Mark Turner of Pennine Prospects said: “Fields of Vision is helping us to celebrate and promote the South Pennines and really put this stunning landscape on the map.
