Places to see in ( Harrogate - UK )
Harrogate is a town in North Yorkshire, England, east of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Its heritage as a fashionable spa resort continues in the Montpellier Quarter with the Royal Pump Room Museum, documenting the importance of local mineral springs. Nearby is the restored, Moorish-style Turkish Baths & Health Spa. To the west, leafy Valley Gardens features the art deco Sun Pavilion.
Harrogate spa water contains iron, sulphur and common salt. The town became known as 'The English Spa' in the Georgian era, after its waters were discovered in the 16th century. In the 17th and 18th centuries its 'chalybeate' waters (containing iron) were a popular health treatment, and the influx of wealthy but sickly visitors contributed significantly to the wealth of the town.
Harrogate railway station and Harrogate bus station in the town centre provide transport connections. Leeds Bradford International Airport is 10 miles (16 km) south-west of Harrogate. The main roads through the town are the A61, connecting Harrogate to Leeds and Ripon, and the A59, connecting the town to York and Skipton. Harrogate is also connected to Wetherby and the A1, by the A661.
The town is served by four railway stations; Harrogate (for town centre), Hornbeam Park, Pannal (towards Leeds) and Starbeck on the Harrogate Line to Knaresborough and York. Harrogate bus station is in the town centre. It is managed by Harrogate Bus Company, the main operator.

Guide to Yorkshire
A short introduction to Yorkshire filmed at the Cow & Calf Rocks, Ilkley. Ilkley encompasses some of the best of Yorkshire: the Moor with its unique roack carvings over 5,000 years old; the river Wharfe; the Roman fort; the Spa wells; and, lots of events and outdoor activities. Probably most famously the Yorkshire anthem, On Ilkla Moar Baht ‘at was composed on a walk over these moors in the 19th century.

Places to see in ( Huntingdon - UK )
Huntingdon is a market town in Cambridgeshire, England. The town was chartered by King John in 1205. Huntingdon is the traditional county town of Huntingdonshire and the seat of the Huntingdonshire district council.
Huntingdon is well known as the birthplace of Oliver Cromwell, who was born in 1599 and was the member of parliament (MP) for the town in the 17th century. The George Hotel, on the corner of High Street and George Street was once a posting house. It was named after St. George in 1574 and was bought some 25 years later by Henry Cromwell, grandfather of Oliver Cromwell. Charles I made The George his headquarters in 1645. Later Dick Turpin is reputed to have been a visitor when it was a coaching inn on the Great North Road.
Huntingdon lies on the north bank of the River Great Ouse, opposite Godmanchester and close to the market town of St Ives in the east and the village of Brampton in the west. Huntingdon now incorporates the village of Hartford to the east, and the developing areas of Oxmoor, Stukeley Meadows and Hinchingbrooke to the north and west. Between Godmanchester, Huntingdon and Brampton lies England's largest meadow, Portholme Meadow.
Huntingdon is home to many local businesses, including a local Horseracing Course, Huntingdon Racecourse. Hinchingbrooke Business Park has many offices and warehouses located in it. Huntingdon railway station has direct services to London Kings Cross station. It is served by Great Northern.

Places to see in ( Tadcaster - UK )
Places to see in ( Tadcaster - UK )
Tadcaster is a market town and civil parish in the Selby district of North Yorkshire, England. It is approximately 3 miles east of the Great North Road, 12 miles north-east of Leeds, and 10 miles south-west of York.
It is the last town the River Wharfe passes before it joins the River Ouse about 10 miles (16 km) downstream. It is in the shire county of North Yorkshire, although historically split between the Ainsty of York and the West Riding of Yorkshire. The town is twinned with Saint-Chély-d'Apcher in France.
Tadcaster gave its name to a much larger rural district council, Tadcaster Rural District and other administrative areas. This may lead to confusion when comparing the size and extent of the current town with information for earlier periods. For example, the population in 1911 of the Tadcaster sub-district was 6831 compared with that of the Tadcaster Registration District, 32052 (source: A Vision of Britain through time).
Tadcaster has a long association with the brewing industry because of the quality and accessibility of the local water supply. Rich in lime sulphate after filtering through limestone, in the right conditions freshwater springs - known locally as popple-wells - still bubbling up near St Mary's church.
The eleven-arch Tadcaster railway viaduct is 1⁄4-mile (400 m) above the Wharfe bridge; it was built as part of the projected York and North Midland Railway (Leeds Extension) line from Leeds to York. Construction of the line was authorised in 1846, and much of the northern section including the viaduct had been completed when the collapse of railway investment in 1849 led to its abandonment.
Tadcaster Bridge dates back to around 1700. It is the main transport route connecting the town centre, which is divided by the river, and one of the town's two road crossings, the other being the A64 bypass bridge. The bridge partially collapsed on 29 December 2015, following flooding.
Tadcaster is served by local bus services operating from Leeds City bus station. The town is a stop on the Yorkshire Coastliner service, which accesses the Yorkshire Coast. Tadcaster has two main football teams, Tadcaster Albion and Tadcaster Magnets, Tadcaster Rugby Football Club, Tadcaster Harriers running club and Cyclesense Cycling Club.

Brimham Rocks, North Yorkshire, England - 28th June, 2015
Brimham Rocks are balancing rock formations on Brimham Moor in North Yorkshire, England. The rocks stand at a height of nearly 30 metres in an area owned by the National Trust which is part of the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are many variations of rock formations, caused by Millstone Grit being eroded by water, glaciation and wind, some of which have formed amazing shapes.

Walk 100 miles on the South Downs Way - Part 6
The South Downs Way is an incredible 100-mile path and I'm walking the entire trail!
Stretching from Winchester in Hampshire to Eastbourne in Sussex, the South Downs Way is one of Britain's longest national scenic trails. It's the perfect practice route for anyone beginning to hike longer distances, for practicing wild camping and generally living like a true hiker. I'm hiking the South Downs over two weekends averaging 20 miles a day. The first weekend I'll be hiking to Amberly which marks the halfway point and the following weekend I'll be hiking the rest. I hope you enjoy!
