Moorland Gate – from Baildon Moor across Birch Close and the Harvey Smith Gallops by Roy LS

Taken from ‘The Salt Market Walk’, a self-guided Baildon Heritage Trail

Knowing of Roy’s wonderful artistic gifts, the editors invited him to offer one of his pen and ink drawings for publication in The Link.

We chose this picture for its general appeal, and because it is a scene with which many in the circuit may be familiar.

All of Roy’s pictures display an amazing attention to detail and demonstrate a great deal of patience, whilst every blade of grass is faithfully drawn. They are a joy to behold and a gift to be celebrated. Thank you, Roy!


We hope you enjoy looking at this picture…..

The most important Christmas Card you’ll send this year Methodist Homes (MHA) are asking YOUR CHURCH to share the joy of Christmas with older people this year.  Could you take the time to write just one extra Christmas card which will be passed to an older person cared for by MHA?  To take part, please refer to the further  details and an order form . Instructions of how to take part, as well as special Christmas cards designed by an MHA resident for your church members to write their own messages of goodwill and friendship, are included in the Christmas Friendship Appeal pack. “May I express my gratitude for your lovely idea of asking folk (including children) to send Christmas cards. We appreciate the warmth and concern of the whole idea.”  MHA Resident

Once again our food providers at St Christopher's did us proud. The word DIET was banned for these three days. The fresh cream trifle was to die for. We also care for our helpers!
