Isn't Ikley Moor in West Yorkshire?

You're right!

I thought it might be just in the North.

Will amend post

edit: no I won't amend the post as it won't let me anymore.

Edlington Woods, S. Yorks

Edlington Wood, we used to play in these woods as kids, until the big lads from Edlo used to chase us all the way back to Conisbrough, hurling bricks and threats!

Lots of countryside photos lately so I'll put up some city ones:

Grey Street, Newcastle

View of St Nicholas' Cathedral and The Black Gate from the top of the Castle Keep, Newcastle

Saltwell Park, Gateshead (lovely little gem this place, worth a visit if you're ever in the region. Short walk from where I grew up so I've always taken it for granted, but I can honestly say I've never seen a nicer public park anywhere in this country. When I was a kid they used to do pony rides around the lake, and there's a hedge maze and a kind of petting zoo thing... when I was very young they even used to have a disused passenger plane out on the green and you could go up and slide down the emergency exits! No idea how they managed to get it in there.)

The Priory at Tynemouth

Tynemouth Priory from another angle:

Marsden Bay

Of course, best thing about this is taking the lift down the cliff-face into a pretty excellent pub, which used to be a smuggler's cave and there's some nice haunting stories.

Seahouses, Northumberland

Best thing about Seahouses is the fact you can take a short boat trip out to the Farne Islands, where you are pretty guaranteed to get close up to seals and puffins.

Bamburgh Castle is also visible from Seahouses:

Saltwell Park isn't far from me, so I visit fairly regularly. It's quite easy to take it for granted though.

I can remember the plane too

It's one of my favourite places - a lovely day out.

Some more pictures are needed I think.
