Spent #worldrangerday off on childcare duty.
But here's a pic of the moor from a little wander the other day, trying to decide on a good spot for a bench lol. Hard work.
Ground nesting bird season is officially over tomorrow, so back on with restoration work thereafter. #Conservation #Marsden #peatlands

Despite all the rain we've had, recently, Butterley Reservoir isn't full. #Butterley #Marsden #WestYorkshire #Yorkshire

As the #moors burned again today we've had 2 #Chinnocks and 2 #c130's do visits. If only they could do more thank just looking #marsden #moorfires #nationaltrust #raf

Looking towards Pule Hill, part of #Marsden Moor, at twilight this evening.
Walked the #ColneValley Circular route - on the hills around #Golcar #Marsden #Slaithwaite & #Linthwaite to the west of #Huddersfield.
I walked it clockwise last summer (and most of the partial walks we do on it are that way for some reason) so we went anticlockwise today. 22.5km/14miles. The views are maybe better clockwise but the hills felt a bit easier.
We stopped in for a drink at the pub towards the last stretch and were rewarded for our behaviour by a fantastic sunset to take us home đ

Had a 9 mile wander up on Marsden Moor. Some lovely big rocks to have a clamber over at West Nab and I even managed not to get too lost today!

Walked along the #Huddersfield Narrow Canal from #Slaithwaite then joined the Colne Valley Circular at #Marsden for the walk back towards #Golcar - a 9mile loop with a few good climbs. Lovely day for it - wet towards Cupwith but not as outright boggy as I'd feared. Also met a good selection of dogs.

@artilectzed I can't do dive motels like #Marsden anymore.

There's a lot of lovely cycling in West Yorkshire... but occasionally I discover a gem on my own doorstep. Bank Gate in Marsden is only 200m long, but steep and mossy. "No Traffic": Cyclists: Welcome to Yorkshire. #cycling #NoTraffic #RuralRoads #CyclingUK #SMBMS #Marsden #Slaithwaite #Slawit

Went along to a little acoustic folk open mic last night in Marsden. A lovely group with quite diverse song choices who all listen intently. We got called the youngsters, despite being in our forties. I played two regular ones of mine: Louis Collins and Jolene, but a new one called Furr by Blitzen Trapper which went down well.
I love that all around the country there are people getting together like this and singing for each other all the time. #marsden #openmic #folkmusic #yorkshire

@Silvergoatish @southpenninespark beside the canal: Darkwood Coffee roasting, Zapato and Empire Breweries, two awarding winning bakeries: Rogers, Marsden and Handmade, Slawit... Green Valley Grocer, Zero Waste Shop, so many cafes... Arty Explorers... and I'm sat in the Shoulder of Mutton right now waiting for a live music night with Jake Fletcher (session musician with The Specials). In all this, I get to be the Vicar. #SMBMS #Slaithwaite #Marsden woooooo!
@Silvergoatish oh my goodness! I came to the Colne Valley in 2020 and it's amazing. Slawit and Marsden are booming creative hubs, there's a genuinely cooperative spirit and there's a heart of care for each other (and the place they live). Take all this love, and put it in the beauty of the South Pennines: then you've got a hugely desirable place to live. #PoetLaureate #SMBMS #Slaithwaite #Marsden @southpenninespark
