A Playground

A Memory of Skipton.

This was the entry onto the moor, the Moor Gate in the centre leads towards Long Wood. At the right hand side there is a gate, a stone stile by its side, just over the stile and a little way up the moor is Rankin's Well. Over the wall on left is a rocky beck, perfect for building dams.
Often it was sunny and clear up here, whilst Skipton was shrouded by smog from all the houses and mill chimneys.
Our playground.
