Description The West Yorkshire Moors is an original cartographic guide to all of West Yorkshire’s open access moorland, large parts of which were not until recently accessible to the walkers, fell-runners and antiquarians who wanted to explore them. The book traces each of the paths and discovers the hidden features of these heights, unearthing the lost names and historical sites of even the most seemingly empty scene. In addition there are extensive notes and sketches on the area’s wildlife, etymology and historical background. Suggested routes are provided, often far from the beaten track; each offers a new approach to these moors. This much revamped 2nd Edition features updated routes and maps, digitally remastered map detail and two brand new routes.
