Clough Head, West Yorkshire Weather
About Clough Head, West Yorkshire
Ancient stone walls trace the rugged contours of the landscape where Clough Head maintains its quiet vigil over the Pennine slopes. It lies 3.4 miles north-north-west of Meltham (from Meltham: bearing 340°T, OS grid SE 081 158), and is situated west-north-west of Bolster Moor village. High above the valley floor, the light here possesses a brittle clarity that sharpens the silhouettes of the surrounding gritstone ridges. To the north-west, the rising flanks of Rocking Stone Hill and Wholestone Hill draw the eye toward the open, wind-scoured horizon. The earth beneath Clough Head feels heavy with the memory of subterranean industry, a lingering gravity that persists even as the heather reclaims the abandoned margins of the moor. Downwards, the hidden waters of Crimble Clough carve a persistent, rhythmic path through the dark shale, feeding the quietude of the lower slopes. This is a place where the weather dictates the pace of the day, moving in great, grey swells of cloud that brush against the rooftops before dispersing into the vast Yorkshire sky.
