If you, like Kookaburra, have antecedents who hailed from the sheep and cattle country of the Yorkshire dales, you might well be interested in this fascinating website – Swaledale history.
The website is put together by the appropriately named Will Swales.
However, Will’s interests extend beyond the wonders of Swaledale to other Yorkshire nooks and crannies.
So, if you are working out which Yorkshire dales to traverse and which graveyards to hop around on your next visit to the UK, Will is your best point of contact.
