The Yorkshire Dales – ancient churches, cottages and green rolling hills.

We visited an old church which contained some old stain glass, a carving of a crusader sword, a chunk of a Saxon Cross and a Norman font. Interesting.

There was also a Roll of Honour for the dead from the two world wars. Young men who gave their lives for what?

They thought it was freedom; was it really greed? Or preserving the gross inequality? Keeping the wealthy rich? Or was it power and control? I suppose that depends on your viewpoint.

Outside the church there was life – flowers and beautiful green rolling hills.

What a shame that we humans have so much, want so much more and make such a mess.
