#HebdenBridge is the #LGBTQ capital of the #Pennines. Former industrial hellbole transformed into mecca of inclusive creativity.
But 7 miles west in #Cornholme, some wannabe #ChristianTaliban doesn't approve.

Would any of you folks up my way be interested in joining a fedi instance for people in #Leeds or #WestYorkshire?

This walk from Burley-in-Wharfedale in #WestYorkshire goes to the highest point on Ilkley Moor, part of Rombalds Moor via various landmarks - Lanshaw Lad, trig. point, The Twelve Apostles Stone Circle, Ashlar Chair and reservoirs. Great views too. See
-
This easy stroll from Guiseley in #WestYorkshire, for hardly any effort, gives some lovely views with the benefit some probably little known bluebell woods which should be doing their stuff at this time of year. See https://www.happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/WestYorkshire/GuiseleyMenstonCircular/Hiking%20Pages%20-%20Guiseley%20to%20Menston%20Circular.htm

It’s that time of year again and you are unlikely to see a better bluebell display than at Middleton Woods in Ilkley #WestYorkshire. You can either just wander or follow this route which gives some good views too.

I was waiting somewhere yesterday and I noticed this #Bronze #Sculpture next to me, which looked sort of familiar. So, I looked around for a notice and by the side it said this was by the #Sculptor #BarbaraHepworth and was made in #1964. Now, Hepworth lived in #StIves in #Cornwall but she was born and educated in #Wakefield, #WestYorkshire, which happens to be where I grew up for much of my childhood. Quite a coincidence. It’s a small world.

'Magical' #NatureReserve in #UK that inspired #BronteSisters named 'wonder of the world'
The first of its kind nature reserve in #WestYorkshire has been named one of the 'wonders of the world' to visit in 2026 and it's a traveller's paradise.
by Parul Sharma, 24 Jan 2026
"A stunning nature reserve, whose landscape famously inspired the Brontë sisters, is being touted as a must-see for nature enthusiasts and wildlife lovers.
Article continues below"This pioneering nature reserve in West Yorkshire has been making waves after recently being named one of the wonders of the world to visit in 2026 by esteemed international travel magazine, Condé Nast Traveller.
"The picturesque reserve was established in May 2025 as part of King Charles' initiative of 25 National Nature Reserves (#NNRs), designed to conserve wildlife and celebrate UK landscapes by providing enhanced protection to the unique topography within these designated areas.
"Covering 3,148 acres (1,274 hectares) - roughly double the size of Ilkley Moor - the reserve connects eight natural sites within the Bradford and #SouthPennines area, including the famous #Penistone Country Park in #Haworth, once home to the #Brontë sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne."

✨All that glitters, is NOT gold! Dalton Mill (Keighley, England) was transformed into a Victorian nightclub for the 2016 British horror-mystery film The Limehouse Golem. Sadly the mill has suffered several large fires since I took these photos and now lies a collapsed, charred ruin!

#UKGovernment expands #police use of #FacialRecognition vans
by Kate Whannel, August 13, 2025
"More live facial recognition (#LFR) vans will be rolled out across seven police forces in England to locate suspects for crimes including sexual offences, violent assaults and homicides, the Home Office has announced.
"The forces will get access to 10 new vans equipped with cameras, which scan the faces of people walking past and check them against a list of wanted people.
"The government says the technology has been used in London to make 580 arrests in 12 months, including 52 registered sex offenders who breached their conditions.
"However, campaign group #BigBrotherWatch said the 'significant expansion of the #SurveillanceState' was 'alarming'.
"Live facial recognition was first used in #England and #Wales in 2017 during the Uefa Champions League final football match in Cardiff."Since then its use has largely been confined to #SouthWales, #London and #Essex including at a Beyoncé concert to scan for paedophiles and terrorists [like elderly Palestine Action activists!]
"The government is now funding 10 vans equipped with LFR to be shared between seven forces, approximately doubling the number of vehicles.
"The seven forces are Greater #Manchester, #WestYorkshire, #Bedfordshire, #Surrey, #Sussex, #ThamesValley and #Hampshire.
"The technology identifies people by taking measurements of facial features including the distance between the eyes and the length of the jawline and then comparing the data to to an existing watchlist.
"Each van will be staffed with a trained officer who checks the matches identified by the technology.
"Simultaneously, the government is holding a consultation on what safeguards are needed to "ensure transparency and public confidence", ahead of drawing up a new legal framework.
"Big Brother Watch is bringing a legal challenge against the #MetPolice's use of the technology, alongside #ShaunThompson, who was wrongly identified by an LFR camera.
#Rebecca Vincent, interim director of Big Brother Watch, said: 'Police have interpreted the absence of any legislative basis authorising the use of this intrusive technology as carte blanche to continue to roll it out unfettered, despite the fact that a crucial judicial review on the matter is pending.
" ;The #HomeOffice must scrap its plans to roll out further live facial recognition capacity until robust legislative safeguards are established.'
"Labour peer Baroness Chakrabarti told the BBC the technology was 'incredibly intrusive' and 'some would say this is yet another move towards a total #surveillance society'."

West Yorkshire people, which of these two hex layouts (of wards) would you prefer? Option 1 where each local authority is separate or Option 2 where they are joined into a combined West Yorkshire? Option 2 requires (to me) a less nice arrangement within each local authority.

Time for genealogical research. First to check the Leeds Catholic registers of baptisms, for my granddad and his siblings (baptised Catholic due to their Irish Mum). Then Scotland, and Melrose, to browse the 19th century communion rolls, and figure out when my maternal ancestors moved into the town. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #Leeds #Melrose #WestYorkshire #Roxburghshire #ScottishBorders #historicalResearch #Catholic #ChurchOfScotland #Kirk #BaptismRegisters #CommunionRolls #Ireland #Migration
