Dalton Mills, Keighley. A beautiful abandoned Victorian textile mill in West Yorkshire. I had the privilege of exploring and documenting this historical place a few years ago. Sadly, a huge fire destroyed it in 2022.

#HebdenBridge is the #LGBTQ capital of the Pennines. Former industrial hellbole transformed into mecca of inclusive creativity.
But 7 miles west in #Cornholme, some wannabe #ChristianTaliban doesn't approve.

I totally agree with Sally Wainwright about the beauty of writing that is grounded in a place, rather than bland & generic to make it easier to market.

I'm at a writer's retreat. When I arrived, we were offered fruit cake and cheese, which seems to be a very Yorkshire delicacy.
So I'm curious. Have you ever had fruit cake & cheese?
"Yorkshire connection" could mean that you were in Yorkshire at the time, or you have family from Yorkshire, etc.

Behind every journey on #Supertram in South #Yorkshire is the work of the Presentation Team, which maintains trams, stops, shelters and #infrastructure to keep the network safe and welcoming. Alongside routine duties, the team carries out periodic deep cleans. Recently, a Siemens tram underwent a two-day programme in the workshop, beginning with a detailed inspection and structured plan to avoid service disruption.
Specialist equipment, including new chewing gum removal machinery, was used to tackle hard-to-reach areas. Overhead panels and signage were removed and cleaned, seat bases dismantled, stair edging resealed, and floors, cab and exterior thoroughly treated.
The project brought together engineering and facilities staff, with Managing Director Sean English joining the work. It forms part of an ongoing programme to maintain standards across the 30-year-old fleet ahead of new trams expected in 2030, subject to funding, alongside wider stop refurbishments.

The Go-Ahead Group has launched a national “Better By Bus” campaign to encourage more people to travel by bus, highlighting benefits for customers, communities and the environment. Running for 12 months across #England, from the Isle of Wight to #Yorkshire, the campaign uses radio, digital audio, billboards and on-bus branding.
It aims to grow the 11 million daily bus users by promoting affordability, #accessibility, and lower environmental impact. Key benefits include fares under £3 on participating routes, fewer cars on the road, and support for local businesses, as passengers spend on average £32 per return journey locally.
Go-Ahead says the campaign will help people see buses as a practical, greener alternative to car travel, while Roads and #Buses Minister Simon Lightwood notes government investment makes now an ideal time to choose bus travel. 🚌 🏴

Petzl have updated their pulley range with new names and codes. If you're running the old models, we've mapped out what's replaced what.
Specs have changed too, generally 1mm down on rope diameter.

A wide-angle photo of the pipe chamber at Ossett Town Hall. At the right of the picture are the chimes.
The special effects "toy cabinet" is above me, the xylophone and vibraphone to the left, lots of other things. I didn't have time to get a pic of those so someone else could have a look.
(Yes I'm an organ nerd. Don't judge me.)

When wondering how best to describe the settlement of Thwaite in North Yorkshire, I went for 'hamlet', but then discovered it is described by some as a 'village'. So that got me thinking, what is the difference?
One helpful definition I came across describes a 'hamlet' as a tiny, rural settlement without a church or central services, typically smaller than a village which is likely to have a church, school and maybe shops.
A hamlet is more likely to be little more than a cluster of dwellings, but a 'village' will generally be more developed.
I think that puts Thwaite in the 'hamlet' category.
Situated near Muker in Swaledale, alongside Thwaite Beck, it was, from 1974, part of the district of Richmondshire, but since 2023 falls under the unitary North Yorkshire Council.
Popular with walkers, two long-distant paths run through it, the Pennine Way and Wainwright's Coast to Coast.

Hi Fedi, I'm Jess, #lefty West #Yorkshire lass born and bred.
Software dev by day working for a marine technology company - I don't really talk about that much tho. Disc jockey by night as "Mrs R's #Retro Roadshow", played from 7" #vinyl records. I refurb old disco kit - lights and decks.
Got a studio in Wakefield, once had a career as a #queer musician which I'll return to at some point. If you search online for "The Bleeding Obvious", that's me.
Like #cats (got 3) and I'm a married #lezza.
