144010 Pauses at Menston station on the Wharfedale line with a service from Ilkley to Leeds. Prior to electrification in 1994, this was a bit of Pacer stronghold. The route now primarily operated by the class 333.

The story of painter Clarence Henry Roe 1850-1909 is a sad one. An outstanding talent of the Victorian era, the landscape artist spent his final weeks in Menston (High Royds) Asylum. See Mark Davis' fascinating article. mark-davis-photography.com/yorkshire/yo...

Plan was to walk from Menston station to Otley Court House , but I don’t want to end up with a rain head like last night so I think it may be Leeds to Otley by bus - adventures always waiting Robinince.com

This is "The Weir at Burley" by Phyllis Bray from 1932. Phyllis married John Cooper in 1931 & his family home was at Menston near Otley in Wharfedale so the both painted extensively in the area as a result. #PhyllisBray #Wharfedale #Yorkshire #EastLondonGroup

This is "Knaresborough" by Phyllis Bray from 1931. Phyllis' new husband (they were married in 1931), John Cooper's family home was at Menston in Yorkshire just under 20 miles from Knaresborough & the both painted not dissimilar views of the town at that time. #PhyllisBray #EastLondonGroup

To conclude our landscape themed week & also staying in Wharfedale after yesterday's offering from John Cooper, here's "The Weir at Burley" by Phyllis Bray from 1932. Phyllis was Cooper's wife so the couple often painted near his family home in Menston. #PhyllisBray #Wharfedale

This walk from Menston in #WestYorkshire provides for some of the best views in the area, taking in both the Wharfe and Aire valleys and clear views as far as the Emley Moor transmitter. See www.happyhiker.co.uk/MyWalks/West...

Menston station, W Yorks., still has some Midland Railway gully covers that have survived recent SFA works - and I'm sure Shipley has the same.

We had an amazing time campaigning in Menston this weekend 🌟

People in Wharfedale Ward are ready for change - Labour and the Tories are not delivering for local people and only the Greens can stop the threat from Reform 🔄

On May 7th, Vote Green in Wharfedale ✅️

On day three of our landscape themed week here's "The Wharfe at Arthington Viaduct" by John Cooper from c.1931/32. Cooper lived in Menston near Otley so he painted extensively in the area. The feature on the skyline is Almscliffe Crag. #JohnCooper #Wharfedale #Yorkshire #EastLondonGroup

Here's one that I've only ever shown here rarely. This is "Weston Hall" by John Cooper. It is undated but I suspect that it comes from between 1931 & 1933. Weston Hall is just a few miles from Cooper's family home at Menston in Yorkshire. #JohnCooper #Yorkshire #EastLondonGroup

Remembering Peter Whitehead, who died on this day, 21 September 1958. He was a British racing driver from Menston, Yorkshire, and one of the most accomplished privateer racers of his generation.

Rhododendrons may be beautiful, but they’re destructive in UK woodlands. 🌿 Protect Earth recently partnered with Menston Area Nature Trust to remove these invasive species at East Wood, restoring space for native plants to flourish.

Partnerships like this help us to make an impact.
