Re: Today in pictures
I had a ride over to Heptonstall today, there is a grave there containing the remains of David Hartley. He was know as the Yorkshire coiner. His crime was to cut edges from the old coins and melt them down to forge new ones and he was very successful until he was caught.
He was hanged at York and left swinging for a week before being taken back to his home in Heptonstall where he was buried.
I then showed my friend around the village.
No. 1 The grave.
No 2. Towngate where my sister lives.
No 3 & 4. The old Church.
No 5. Local entertainment.
No 6. looking back towards Todmorden.
No 7. Same spot but with a bit of zoom on the lens.
