The Yorkshire Dales and the Lakes: Season by Season
Season 4 Episode 3 of 4
In summer, working in the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District offers a chance to stop, take stock and play in the beautiful landscape. In Grasmere, shepherding father and son Peter and Robert Bland bring their flock of Herdwick sheep down off the fell for their annual shear. For sport climber Naomi Buys, summer is the chance to climb places that at other times would be impossible. She heads to Gordale Scar near Malham, hoping to conquer a route that's as difficult as it is coveted. On the Swinton Estate in lower Wensleydale, bee farmers John and Michael Worsdale make the most of the warmer months
