If it's Thursday....it must be Saltaire


Today June and Mrs. D.P. hit a historic site near to Bradford. It is the village Sir Titus Salt built for his mill workers. Sir Titus was a philanthropist and his village was forward looking in the Industrial Revolution. He was also a leading light in the Victorian temprance movement and so there was no pub!

It is a World Heritage Site and is worth a google search.
