At Silicon Dales, we love agricultural shows (none more so than our local show, the Wensleydale Show, for which we are delighted to have produced the show website) so, because a lot of our traffic is from rural people, and people who like the countryside, we’ve decided to help you out with a big list [...]

The 2013 Dales Festival of Food & Drink is coming to Leyburn next week, with the popular food-lovers event taking place on 4th, 5th and 6th May 2013.

Another weather based blog post is due, as it has been snowing in Wensleydale this week, and that’s the first time for this winter. As I type, the distant hills over Coverdale are capped in white, with the sun beating down on them, while Pen Hill is only lightly dusted. Much of last week’s flood [...]

I’ve taken a break from writing websites for 10 minutes to comment on the current weather – and to post my photograph of Middleham’s new… water feature (right). As I look out of the office window, over Middleham, and Lower Wensleydale, I can see a rather large lake of water where there once was a [...]

All clients of Silicon Dales [...]
