It s God s own country, according to local legend. A land of unimaginably beautiful countryside, derelict castles, cliff-hugging coastlines, brutally bleak moors, quirkily quaint villages, wondrously winding waterways and industrial monsters of cities. A land laced with the history of the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial revolution and the rise of the Labour movement, birthplace of legendary figures: Brian Clough, Harold Wilson, John Wycliffe, William Wilberforce, the Bronte Sisters, David Hockney and Barbara Hepworth.
