Our Ingleborough pt.3: Recreation

Thousands of people, often from the towns and cities of Lancashire and West Yorkshire, travel each week to the Ingleborough area for recreation.   In Part Three, hear two men from a Muslim hikers group.  Group leader Sham Ali proudly declares that he is from ‘Bradford, born and bred as a Yorkshireman,’ while teacher Tariq Shiraz shares his admiration for the way people try to keep the area free from litter.  ‘People walk with bin liners,’ he says.  Also in Part Three, Anna Greenwood goes for a dip with Les Peebles.  ‘It quite clearly puts me into the present moment,’ says the all-year-round outdoor swimmer known as the ‘Dales Dipper’.  Presented by Andrew Fagg and Anna Greenwood.
