A Northowram snow scene.

This was the view from just in front of my mum's garden last winter

One is a picture of the view directly from the garden and the other is a close up of the hill that you can see in the distance.

For some reason only the close up of the hill came through. It cuts out the stuff thats right in front of the garden. I will try again and post the other pic.

I'll bet those stone walls dividing the fields are *old*.

Oh yes. Close up, some of them are really really old. Not all though, dry stone walling is still done today

Beautiful location.

I'm still trying to remember if we had settled snow last year. I think we did - about half an inch for about 4 hours. Or that might have been the year before!

If we ever get out of t-shirt weather I'll start walking to work again to catch some frosty shots.

Thanks for posting the pictures. I visited StumpCross while I was there. Went into the caverns. Cool and spooky. So then, I really was in your area?

Ahhh....sorry, different Stump Cross. There's a place called Stump Cross which used to be a hamlet on the edge of NOrthowram, and is now classed as part of Northowram.

The Stump Cross caverns are in a different area.

There are a lot of 'Stump Crosses' which tends to denote a point that used to have a stone cross marking the Parish boundaries, which had the top broken off during the Cromwell years. (hence they became called stump crosses).

Ah! I see. Then I will have to visit the one near you next time I go over. Thjere is so much to see and two weeks wasn't nearly enough time even to see just a wee bit of Yorkshire.

These two pictures are very beautiful. This place is very extensive. If I were stay here, I would have done to be very happy.
