"The Three Counties System's most southerly entrance is currently Large Pot (54°11′11″N2°29′18″W / 54.186439°N 2.488420°W, NGR SD 6281 7685) on the northerly flank of Kingsdale in North Yorkshire, and the most northerly entrance is currently Bull Pot of the Witches (54°13′35″N2°31′10″W / 54.226398°N 2.519514°W, NGR SD 6623 8131) beneath Barbon Low Fell in Cumbria – a distance of almost 5 kilometres (3 mi). Between the two, the system passes beneath Ireby Fell and Leck Fell which are in Lancashire. The system runs mainly north–south, its western extent being limited by the Craven Fault which truncates the limestone exposure, and the eastern extent where the limestones are conformable overlain by younger rocks."
"The name, Sheffield, has its origins in Old English and derives from the name of a principal river in the city, the River Sheaf. This name, in turn, is a corruption of shed or sheth, which refers to a divide or separation.[8][9] The second half of the name Sheffield refers to a field, or forest clearing.[10] Combining the two words, it is believed that the name refers to an Anglo-Saxon settlement in a clearing by the confluence of the River Don and River Sheaf.[11]"
"Just down the street from The Lawrance on Micklegate, you’ll find Partisan, an independent family run café and restaurant. Supporting local suppliers and independent producers, Partisan cooks everything to order using fresh ingredients for their rustic, modern British menu. They serve a variety of dishes and work hard to cater to vegans and vegetarians with inventive dishes."
"Situated in Micklegate, York, Partisan is a family-run restaurant. This eatery creates a special menu every week to cater to vegan and vegetarian visitors and locals in town. The remarkable thing about Partisan is that it runs an arable farm on the city’s outskirts, where staff grows the herbs and vegetables used in making the restaurant’s tasty dishes."
"Again, this one involves eggs, especially on the daytime menu. But if that’s not a problem for you, then you will love this quirky spot. If you don’t eat eggs then you still have options and some very tasty ones too."
"They always have a great selection of cakes, brownies and pastries too. Beautiful ambience, excellent food & delicious cakes. The wonderful staff provides a first class service."
"What’s on the menu – York’s best brownies delivered to your doorstep – what’s not to love?. Millionaire’s shortbread and rocky road are on the menu too."
"This British Asian fusion restaurant offers a menu which spans continents and tantalises taste buds. They proudly offer many traditional curries, dabble in the odd Italian dish, and have a great selection of foods fresh from their flaming grill. The selection doesn’t end there, as they also offer hot drinks, milkshakes and mock-tails, to quench your thirst."
"Another great historic house with plenty to do in the grounds for kids, Temple Newsam is only around 15 minutes’ drive from Leeds city centre. The rare breed Home farm is a big hit with younger kids – and older ones, for that matter – with everything from the small and fluffy, including guinea pigs, to rarer farm animals, all set within the outbuildings and around the cobbled yard. There are some lovely walks around the grounds too, with nature trails and an adventure playground too."
"Another impressive country house close to the city centre, Temple Newsam may not have penguins, but its grounds are particularly lovely to walk around. Time your visit for spring to coincide with meeting the new born lambs and piglets at Home Farm. Temple Newsam | © Tim Green / Wikimedia"
"With tree-lined walkways, vast swathes of grassland and a traditional bandstand where live entertained play during the summer, Horsforth Hall Park is a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The Japanese gardens are its crowning glory – created in 1987, they reflect the diverse landscapes of the Japanese isles and create a place of contemplation for visitors. The park also has a skate park and a cricket pitch."
"For those who live in Horsforth, it's no secret that this place becomes swamped in the summer months and it's got a bit of everything. If you fancy burning off a few calories then the Trim Trail is one of the best around and it's also plenty big enough for a quick game of cricket or football, but the highlight is undoubtedly the stunning Japanese Garden."
"Just north of Rodley Nature Reserve is this park with a Japanese garden, trails and plenty more. The main entrance is off Hall Lane, Horsforth"
"02/05/2021: We have ordered numerous meals, to collect, during lockdown., from Iris. This week I had the salmon and my husband had the duck-both were absolutely delicious. The cooking instructions are easy to follow and timings are spot on."
"Iris is a contemporary British restaurant located in the heart of Wakefield city Centre, close to the Cathedral and the Bull Ring fountains."
"Côte Brasserie is a name the whole country knows – they’re famed for their delicious French fare. The venue is inspired by Parisian bistros, and they’ve got a menu to match. You can pop in for breakfast, lunch or supper – start the day with French Toast, fruit salad and maple syrup, head back at lunch to sample their Steak Frites with garlic butter or nip in for a hearty dinner of Roasted Pork Belly."
