Last Snow Flurry At St Ives Estate


To get the best effects of the snow, I should have come across a day earlier but I wan't sure about the state of the roads as Bradford Council are notorious for not getting their snow clearing gear out in time. The road up to the estate is quite steep as well. As it turned out, there was all sorts of minor crashes on this section of the road so I made the right decision.

The estate was quiet so that enabled me to park near Coppice Pond. All of these shots were taken in that area. Thankfully The Ivy Cottage was open so I finished my visit with one of their cappuccinos. This was the only bit of decent snow we had all winter so I was glad that I had the opportunity to make the most of it.
