You don't have to climb the high tops, stride across rugged moorland or battle down steep valley sides to enjoy walking in this beautiful area. If you're not as fit as you were (or plan to be fitter than you are) or with young children in tow, this is bound to be the book for you! It's also ideal when time is short or clouds obscure the high ground. In this book, there are 32 walks without serious ascent which explore the heart of the Dales countryside and are packed with a wealth of interesting features encountered along the way. All the walks are based on well-known towns and villages, mainly within the most popular and best-loved Dales. Since the "level" walker proceeds at a more leisurely pace, taking photographs and admiring the fine scenery, places of refreshments and picnic areas are mentioned where appropriate. And, if you're travelling by car to and from the relevant town or village, you'll appreciate the carefully selected and recommended car parking areas. None of these walks have serious ascents of descents. The more leisurely pace allows the scenery to be admired and photographs to be taken.

The picturesque Yorkshire Dales look even better from the seat of Bristol L or Bristol MW. Come and join us on this trip down memory lane on board two of these fine Bristol vehicles. Vintage Omnibus Services based near West Tanfield in the Yorkshire Dales operate service 127 from Ripon to Garsdale via Hawes. During early June in 2009 our cameras were invited to film one of the Tuesday journeys. We travelled on ex. United A. S. BG381 (LHN 823) a Bristol L5G with ECW B35R body built in 1949 and ex. Eastern National 1348 (208 YVX) a Bristol MW5G with ECW B45F bodywork. After a visit to the depot to see their other L5G, former Lincolnshire R.C.C. 749 (FFW 830) also with an ECW B35R body, we set off to Ripon to take up service 127 on the long journey to Garsdale via the pretty town of Hawes. There is plenty of action, the sound of the Gardner 5 cylinder engine is music to the ears, coupled with the superb scenery passing the windows you are certainly in for a treat. We film from both vehicles to complete the atmospheric experience. There are plenty of outside shots as well to see the vehicles in this beautiful environment which was home to these types of buses from the late 1940s to the 1970s. We also visit the Wensleydale Railway on one of the stops at Redmire Station. From Garsdale we return to Ripon and back to the depot. Sid Parker, our conductor for the day is also an artist, so we feature some of his work as a bonus at the end of this programme. Enjoy your ride!

Although perhaps not as well known as the Yorkshire Dales, the Yorkshire coast is one of the glories of the county of the Broad Acres. In this stunning evocation of the coastline from Middlesbrough and the Tees to the mysterious, shifting 'tail' of Yorkshire at Spurn Head, this is a delightful journey of discovery. Along the way, we encounter the highest cliffs on the east coast at Boulby; the picturesque fishing villages of Whitby, Staithes and Robin Hood's Bay and the towering chalk cliffs of Flamborough Head and Bempton, where seabirds wheel and scream in vast numbers on important RSPB reserves. The seaside towns of Scarborough and Bridlington are still popular holiday resorts for the people of the mill towns of industrial Yorkshire. Ian Carstairs' view of the coastline through 144 beautiful photographic images is a refreshing look at an often overlooked aspect of the county. Until recently, Ian Carstairs lived close to York and has known the coast for most of his life. Formerly employed by the North York Moors National Park authority, he later became the deputy chairman and now works as a countryside consultant where he uses his outstanding photography as a conservation tool.

Colour photographic quality print 20 inches x 16 inches (508mm x 406mm) supplied flat in polypropylene sleeve with support board. This very detailed map of the County of Yorkshire 1611.It covers the West, North and East Ridings giving little room for extra decoration. The rivers, Humber and Ouse, woodlands at Knaresborough and Pickering forests as well as the famous moors and dales of all three ridings are marked. Also featured are the many Yorkshire towns such as York, Leeds, Sheffield and Whitby. The map presents the compass rose and the Royal Coat of Arms of Yorkshire whilst at the bottom is a scale of miles. John Speed, a tailor's son from Cheshire is, perhaps, the most famous of British cartographers and one of the earliest. Whilst in his 50's, aided by his patron, Sir Fulke Greville, he produced "The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain", a book of county maps to accompany a history of Great Britain. All of the John Speed maps in the mapseeker collection have been painstakingly reproduced working directly from antique originals and hand painted to bring out the finest colour detail before scanning. Available in all product sizes they look most handsome framed and displayed

The county of Yorkshire is full of scenic, historical and cultural diversity. In the northwest are the picturesque Dales with its varied scenery of peat moorland, green pastureland and scattered wood intersected by the numerous brooks, streams and rivers. To the northeast are the imposing Yorkshire Moors, the rich agricultural Vale of York, the chalky hills of the Wolds and the dramatic storm-tossed coastline. In the South are the industrial and commercial cities and towns, which have made such a major contribution to our industrial and cultural heritage.
