Wher we Used to go to Play as Children

Water Street c1900
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Those were the days when we could go to the Waterfalls and play all day long without any fears. Paddle in Earby beck and catch tiddlers, play hide and seek beheind the Empire Picture house, go for bike rides to Malhem Tarn. Take the dogs for a walk up the Moors. Go thru the fileds towards Bristol Tractors, boys played soccer in those fields. Going to the Local farms and Haymaking , having homemade cakes and scones from the Farmer's wife.
What happened to being a child at play, nothing like that today, it's scary.
