Legging It (2012)
Book
Chilvers, A. (2012). Legging It. Bradford: Pennine Prospects

The Pennine Watershed landscape is filled with signs of our need; for power, water, transport, food, stone. The land which seems so wild and remote is actually made and marked by us. These stories look at the interaction between the landscape and the... Read More about Legging It.
