I took this video from the ramparts of Clitheroe Castle in a brief break between heavy rainstorms, the flag is at half mast for Town Councillor and Mayor Howel Jones, who sadly passed away on the 10th of September.
The track is Human Being by the Beta Band, from their album Hot Shots II, it seemed to fit well.
The Beta Band are touring this autumn having reformed after parting ways 21 years ago, here are their tour dates, try and see them if you can, they’ve released some truly beautiful tracks and have a very loyal cult following.
Hi, my name is Alexander Burton-Hargreaves, I live in the Northwest of England and have over two decades of experience working in and studying the fields of land management and conservation. As well as ecology and conservation, in particular upland ecology, I am also interested in photography, classical natural history books, architecture, archaeology, cooking and gardening, amongst many other things. These are all subjects I cover in my articles here and on other sites and I plan to eventually publish a series of books on the history and wildlife of Northern England.
