A splendid journey through the Dales during the seasons of the year, visiting ten villages with presentation by W. R. Mitchell M.B.E. This is full of glorious views of the spectacular countryside of the Dales and travels through Ribblesdale, Wensleydale, Swaledale and Wharfedale, stopping off at villages on the way. Bill Mitchell, author of countless books about the Dales and an editor of The Dalesman magazine for many years, presents some fascinating history on each of the ten villages visited.
We also drop in on Edith Carr at Langcliffe in Ribblesdale to see her colourful garden and hear of her experiences when she lived on a farm on Malham moor. So, visit Austwick, Ingleton, Giggleswick, Malham, Thwaite, Gayle, Kettlewell, Linton, Horton in Ribblesdale, Bainbridge and Arncliffe in this beautifully filmed production. All seen in beautiful conditions, but also in the harsh white winter of 1995.
