036: Homesteads of Holmfirth (Holmfirth, Upperthong and Holmbridge) (South Pennines 2015)

SOUTH PENNINES WALK FEATURING HOLMFIRTH, UPPERTHONG AND HOLMBRIDGE

"Homesteads of Holmfirth"
Filmed 27th March 2015
Post-production completed 13th April 2015

I visit the lovely Holmfirth in West Yorkshire, where "Last of the Summer Wine" was filmed. After exploring the town I walk a five mile circuit taking in some of the splendid surrounding countryside.

Filmed in the county of West Yorkshire including a small part of Derbyshire and the Peak District. Locations include Holmfirth, Upperthong, Holmbridge and Holme Moss. This is the first film in the South Pennines.

Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.

Any other names credited in this film, i.e. Bob Morgan and Martin Roy, are pseudonyms, which I used at the time of making this film. However, I no longer use these pseudonyms as I want viewers to be clear that my films are completely my own work.

"The Solitary Rambler" is my series of amateur films of my journeys in the countryside accompanied by my own musical scores, which I compose and perform on my Yamaha keyboard.

Please note that, as with all the films I make, this is not actually intended to be an extensive guide to the area. This is a mini-movie of my personal journey along the walk, in which I often share some of my own personal stories.

If you are new to my channel, I strongly recommend reading the description under the “about” tab, which will provide a clearer understanding of what to expect in my films:    / solitaryrambler
