For the last 18 months I’ve been coming back to the same site to take photos as part of a personal project. I love things that are old and decaying and about 5-10 miles from Malton in central Yorkshire is Wharram le Street. Wharram le Street is a fairly affluent area in which my mother [...]

I really enjoy visiting Yorkshire. The people are generally friendly, especially so in the North, and it has great scenery. In this post I saw a funny Rabits at Work sign in Wharram Percy, we went to Flamborough Head which has a really photogenic windmill and lighthouse. We also visited the Yorkhire Moors not far [...]

I’ve been to Fountains Abbey twice now but neither time have been able to take a lot of photos. The first time I went was a good few years ago with my mother and we just argued and the second time I went was with Liv but we got there late in the day and [...]

We had a mixture of really nice but also utterly miserable weather today so we took a short trip to Castle Howard. I had been there once with less than favourable company so it was great to go back with Liv and explore a bit further but also have a laugh. I took a couple [...]

One of my favourite places to go in the UK is Robin Hoods Bay on the Yorkshire coast. Before I got together with Liv I used to travel to Yorkshire a couple times a year and would travel to Whitby, Staithes and other places but I never really got a chance to stop and take [...]

Padley Gorge is somewhere we had never been to before and for us was an absolute nightmare to get to. While being relatively easy to get to on a map we had to take massive diversions which made us utterly lost. Padley Gorge is a beautiful example of oak and birch woodland. The gorge is [...]
