Paintings, prints & poetry based on stories of the Yorkshire Dales at
Wensley Church, North Yorkshire.

I am currently looking for all sorts of stories or anecdotes about places in the Dales. This place, for example, is Bolton Castle where Mary Queen of Scots was held. Places like this have great stories which is inspiring my latest work. If you know of any really good ones please CLICK HERE to email. Thanks.
