Monday, October 24th, 2011

This poster was produced for North Eastern Railway (NER) in 1914 to promote rail travel to the Yorkshire Dales. It depicts a magical scene set in Brimham Rocks, near Harrogate, of faeries and elves dancing in a circle around a rock formation.

There’s no guarantee of a sighting, but you’ll have a splendid day nonetheless exploring all the nooks and crannies of this amazing site.
