  1. The Great Heather Gamble

    Europe is burning, and nobody has bothered telling the weather. Wildfires in Spain and France are breaking records while the Cairngorms also feels the heat. The North York Moors is not a stranger to this chaos. A massive blaze last year turned twenty-five square kilometres of one moor into a cinder.

  6. Cock Howe — After the Fall

    One thing that does not endear me to the moors is the endless run of gamekeepers’ access tracks. Miles of the stuff. Dull to run, duller to walk, but perfect for cycling, except our creaking access laws say no, thank you very much.
    One such track runs along the skyline of Bilsdale West Moor, from the Bilsdale Tramsitter Station to Green Howe. Y ...

  11. Chop Gate: Pedlars, Vikings and a Farmer’s Opinion

    Chop Gate sits quietly in Bilsdale until the TT roars through and reminds everyone it exists. But the village has a quieter puzzle that never goes away: nobody can agree on what to call it, or what it means.

  16. Lady Day: When England Turned Over a New Leaf

    March 25th was not just another date. It was the day England once held its breath, then exhaled.

  21. Wath Hill

    A view from the rear of Cranimoor, or Cringle Moor as modern maps insist on calling it. Raisdale splits into two narrow arms, held apart by the modest bulk of Wath Hill, a hill so thoroughly “improved” for pasture that every trace of wild moor has been rubbed out. No heather, no grouse. Pheasants aplenty instead.

  26. When the Monks Assarted Bilsdale

    In windswept Bilsdale, a ring-fence of bank and ditch at Garfitts and a scatter of medieval sherds tell a story not often told. This was not always a quiet dale of lonely farms.

  31. Billy’s Dyke on the High Moor

    Just after the midwinter feast of 1070, William the Conqueror, fresh from Christmas in York, marched north to settle a score. His garrison at Durham had been slaughtered, and he meant to answer blood with fire. What followed was ruin on a grand scale. Villages, farms, whole stretches of countryside were wiped clean, with no one l ...

  41. Urra: What’s in a Name?

    Urra. A name that sounds as if the wind itself whispered it across the moor. Once, according to Richard Blakeborough, this lonely hamlet in upper Bilsdale had a blacksmith and an inn – the twin hearts of any small community. Now it is little more than a name on a map, clinging to the edge of the North York Moors.
