Views.

People often come to Sandalfarm and say, "What a View!"

I don't really rate our view (not a great photo but it gives you some idea) as it is an industrial view, interupted by power lines and a city.

The city of Bradford lies five miles down the valley and it isn't a pretty view to overlook any city except perhaps Oxford with the dreaming spires or St Davids on the south west coast of Wales.

From Bradford it is a plateau that stretches to the east coast.

The most visible landmarks are the power stations at Ferrybridge, Eggborough, Drax and the other one (the name escapes me). Their plumes of untrapped steam identifies them easily from any high point in West Yorkshire.

There is also the Bradford University and the church at Thornton, the village unknown as being the birth place of the Brontes.

We moved in on Bonfire Night and it DID look spectacular then. All of Bradford were welcoming us to our new home and our new view. Now we see fireworks when there is a wedding or (so I am told) when the drugs arrive.
