Enraged, the bloodthirsty aristocrats hacked at him with their swords and he later died from his injuries [1/2 #FolkloreThursday #folklore

  5. This very short walk on #Yorkshire’s East Coast but it allows for plenty of time to explore the lovely, characterful  village of Staithes, where it starts. Interesting cliff top walk & old ironstone port of Port Mulgrave. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/North

  16. 🌿🪨The "Druid’s Temple " in North Yorkshire. A photogenic 19th-century folly built to mimic an ancient monument.

    It was a construction project to provide work for locals after the Napoleonic Wars.

    However, the site is linked to many a spooky tale. Shifting shadows and eerie noises in the night, alleged occult practices and dark folklore legends.

  21. Back at work, slightly sunburnt, mentally still in Watlowes.

    The Dales looked incredible this Bank Holiday. And with a provisional UK spring temperature record broken yesterday (34.8°C, Kew Gardens), apparently half the country agreed.

    Stay hydrated. Reapply sunscreen. Wear a hat. 🌞

    How was yours? And what's the half-term plan?

  26. Birks Fell ridge is between Littondale & Wharfedale in the #YorkshireDales & is the highest point between the them so good views of both, plus of the #Yorkshire Three Peaks. Uses Access Land so absence of marked ROW makes it quiet but easy navigation. See happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/Yorks

  31. One of the most gothtastic places must be Whitby. Its famous 199 steps are flanked with what appear to be benches. They are actually coffin rests, enabling those carrying caskets up to the clifftop St Mary's Church to take a break. In 'Dracula', the Count runs up these steps in the form of a huge dog, before killing his first English victim in the churchyard. This scene may be based on local legends of a phantom black dog that haunts the moors around the town. #FolkloreSunday #gothic #folklore #goth #literature #vampire #vampires #history #death #Yorkshire #weird #books
