A bittersweet goodbye to Whitby’s iconic whale bones. A gift to Whitby from its Alaskan twin town, Barrow, the whale bone arch has stood as a beloved landmark for generations. Exposure to the elements has sadly led to a deterioration in its condition, bringing the end of an era.

Yorkshire’s Rhubarb Triangle. (Yorkshire’s Golden Triangle is formed by Harrogate, York and Leeds.) Great photo nonetheless.
Gathering forced rhubarb for the spring markets in West Yorkshire's 'golden triangle', 1940s. The triangle is the centre of the world for rhubarb, bordered by Leeds, Wakefield and Bradford. In 2010 Yorkshire Forced Rhubarb was awarded Protected Designation of Origin status.
