Good effort that, bet you didn't see many people. I once tried in vain to find the true summit of Dead Man's Hill, not easy.

Saw absolutely no-one at all on the way there, right up until I got to the banks of the reservoir, where there were quite a few walkers. On the way back, a few off-road motorcyclists, a few walkers and a couple of cyclists who I saw at Scar House and again going up a very steep bit in Walden - they commented that they'd had to go the long way round where I'd gone over the top.

Interesting article from one of my neighbours:

foundationforcommonland.org.uk

I knew about the commoners, but didn't realise there were so many. What a fantastic old tradition!

Happy Yorkshire Day to you too.

I'll have been living in Yorkshire for 30 years in January :-o had family here before that though as Dad is from Leeds and we just lived away for a while before moving back.

Actually yes, as per cath, I've now lived longer in Surrey than I did in Yorkshire. I might be asked to hand back my Northerner Card!

Thankfully I still have my accent - just maybe not so broad.
