Whinmoor’s gentle rise catches the pale Yorkshire light, a quiet spread of homes overlooking a landscape that has seen centuries turn. It lies 6.0 km north-west of Garforth (from Garforth: bearing 313°T, OS grid SE 359 371), and is situated west of Scholes village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and distant fields, a reminder of the agricultural roots that still hold sway in the surrounding countryside. As one travels through Whinmoor, the houses, a mixture of older brick and more modern builds, seem to huddle together against the wide expanse of sky, their gardens often bursting with the determined colours of hardy Yorkshire blooms. There is a peacefulness to Whinmoor, a sense that life unfolds at its own measured pace, unhurried by the clamour of larger conurbations. The distant hum of traffic from the main roads is a mere whisper here, easily lost in the rustle of leaves or the call of a skylark.
