The Yorkshire Dales
While visiting North England in October 1988, I spent several days
in James
Herriot's Yorkshire, where "All Creatures Great and Small" was
written by Alf Wight (a.k.a. James Herriott) and later filmed as BBC and
A&E TV series. Unfortunately, I missed meeting him at his surgery at
that time, as his family was on holiday, and he has since passed away,
in 1995. The Yorkshire
Dales provide beautiful countryside with very friendly people, much
as he described it and as shown in the series. The pictures below show
a bit of that countryside that we passed through.
The recreated Farnon / Herriot Surgery, now located in Richmond,
Yorkshire.
